Abdurabbih bin Bariq Al-Hanafi said:
I heard my grandfather, the father of my mother, Simak bin Al-Walid Al-Hanadi narrating, that he heard Ibn Abbas narrated, that he heard the Messenger of Allah saying: Whoever has two predecessors (in death) among my Ummah, then Allah will admit them into Paradise. So Aishah said to him: What about one from your Ummar who has one precessor? He (pbuh) said: And whoever has one predecessor O Muwaffaqqah! So she said: What about one who does not have a predecessor from your Ummah? He said: I am the predecessor for my Ummah: you will never suffer (in grief) for (the loss of) anyone similar to me.
