Jabir, Abdullah's son asked Yazid Al Faqir whether he had heard something about the station of Prophet Muhammad . Yazid replied that he had and said, "It is the Praiseworthy Station of Muhammad through which Allah will release from the Fire whosoever comes from it." Then he recalled the famous prophetic quotation of intercession that speaks of the release of people from Hell saying, “The people asked the Messenger of Allah “O Messenger of Allah will we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection? The Messenger of Allah replied, “Do you doubt that you will see the moon on the night of the full moon?” They replied, “No, O Messenger of Allah . He asked, “Do you doubt that the sun is not a cloud?” They replied, “No, O Messenger of Allah . He said, “You will see Him as well ….” The hadith is lengthy and as it continues it mentions the people of Hell. “The Messenger said, “When the judgment of Allah upon His worshipers has reached its conclusion, and He wished on account of His Mercy to bring forth people from Hell, He will order the angels to bring forth from it anyone who did not associate anything with Allah from among those who say ‘There is no god except Allah’. So they (the angels) will recognize them on account of the signs of prostration upon their foreheads because Hell does not consume the children of Adam upon whom are the traces of prostration, that is because Allah has forbidden those parts be consumed by Hell. And they will emerge burned from the Fire, whereupon the water of life will be poured upon them and they will be revived just as a seed is revived in the spring.

The Assembly on the Day of Resurrection
and the Intercession of Prophet Muhammad

There are many authentic prophetic sayings relating to the Prophet's exalted and honored position on the Day of Resurrection.

Anas and several other Companions reported that the Prophet said, "Allah will join the first and the last, on the Day of Resurrection. They will be concerned or given thoughts with which they will say, 'If only we could seek intercession with our Lord!'" It is also reported that, "People will surge and search amongst each other."

Concerning the circumstances of that Day, Abu Hurayrah tells us of the occasion when the Prophet spoke giving more details of the Day of Resurrection saying, "On that Day the sun will be very near to mankind and they will undergo unbearable suffering and distress. They will say among themselves, 'Is there no one to intercede for us?' And they will go to Adam and say, 'O Adam, you are the father of mankind. Allah created you with His Hands and breathed into you of His (created) spirit, and let you live in His Paradise, and commanded the angels to prostrate in your direction, and taught you the names of everything. Won't you intercede
