[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "What a good man I am for the worst of my people." A man from among his companions said to him, "How are you, O Messenger of Allah, the best of them?" He said, "As for the worst of my people, Allah will admit them to Paradise through my intercession, and as for the best of them, Allah will admit them to Paradise through their deeds."  

الطبراني:٧٤٨٣حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ بْنِ نَجْدَةَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثنا جَمِيعُ بْنُ ثَوْبٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ؓ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «نِعْمَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا لِشِرَارِ أُمَّتِي» فَقَالَ لَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ جُلَسَائِهِ كَيْفَ أَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لِخِيَارِهِمْ؟ قَالَ «أَمّا شِرَارُ أُمَّتِي فَيُدْخِلُهُمُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِي وَأَمَّا خِيَارُهُمْ فَيُدْخِلُهُمِ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِأَعْمَالِهِمْ»

"نِعْمَ الرَّجُلُ أَنَا لِشِرَارِ أُمَّتِي! قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ الله: كَيفَ أَنْتَ لِخيَارِهمْ؟ قَال: أَمَّا شِرَارُ أُمَّتِي فَيُدْخِلُهُمُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِشَفَاعَتِي، وَأَمَّا خِيَارُهُمْ فَيُدْخِلُهُمُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِأعْمَالِهِمْ".
