Hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ مَيْسَرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَة َ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ ‏{‏كُنْتُمْ خَيْرَ أُمَّةٍ أُخْرِجَتْ لِلنَّاسِ‏}‏ قَالَ خَيْرَ النَّاسِ لِلنَّاسِ، تَأْتُونَ بِهِمْ فِي السَّلاَسِلِ فِي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ حَتَّى يَدْخُلُوا فِي الإِسْلاَمِ‏.‏

Narrated Abu Huraira:The Verse:--"You (true Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind." means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam

Abu Huraira bataate hain: Is Aayat, 'Tum sab logon ke liye khada ki gayi sabse behtareen ummat ho,' ka matlab ye hai ke tum logon ke liye behtareen ho, kyunke tum unhe (jaise ke qaidiyon ki tarah) zanjeeron mein baandh kar laate ho yahaan tak ke wo Islam qubool kar lete hain.
