Riyad as-Salihin 1839
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said in the interpretation of the Ayah reported:
"You are the best of peoples ever raised up for (the benefit of) mankind..." (3:110): The best for mankind are those who bring them with chains round their necks till they embrace Islam (and thereby save them from the eternal punishment in the Hell-fire, and make them enter Jannah in the Hereafter)." [Al-Bukhari] .
وعنه رضي الله عنه ‏:‏ ‏{‏كنتم خير أمة أخرجت للناس‏}‏ قال‏:‏ خير الناس للناس يأتون بهم في السلاسل في أعناقهم حتى يدخلوا في الإسلام‏.‏
