What is the reference of this Hadith?
Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“The example of myself and the Ambiya is that of a man who has built a house, completed it, and beautified it except he leaves out one brick. When the people enter the house, they admire its beauty and they say: ‘If only this one brick was put in place’ I am that brick, I am the seal of the Ambiya”
