حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ حَدَّثَنَا شُرَيْحُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ حَدَّثَنِي شُعَيْبُ بْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ قَالَ قَالَ لِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْکَدِرِ وَابْنُ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ وَغَيْرُهُمَا مِنْ فُقَهَائِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَإِذَا قُلْتَ أَنْتَ ذَاکَ فَقُلْ وَأَنَا مِنْ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَعْنِي قَوْلَهُ وَأَنَا أَوَّلُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 762
Shuaib bin Abi Hamzah said: Ibn al-Munkadir, Ibn Abi Farwah and a number of jurists of Madina said to me: When you recite the supplication “I am first of the Muslims, ” say instead; “I am one of the Muslims”.
