The first to enter Jannah

Is the following an authentic Hadith

ان الجنة حرمت على الانبياء كلهم حتى ادخلها وحرمت على الامم حتى تدخلها امتي

Answer:

This Hadith is recorded by Imam Tabarani (rahimahullah) on the authority of Sayyiduna ‘Umar (radiyallahu’anhu).
(Al-Mu’jamul Awsat, Hadith: 946)

‘Allamah Haythami (rahimahullah) has declared the chain sound (hasan).
(Majma’uz Zawaid, vol.10 pg.68)

Translation

Indeed Jannah is forbidden to all the Ambiya (‘alayhimus salam) until I enter it, and it is forbidden upon the Ummahs (nations) until my Ummah (nation) enters it.

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best,
