إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ رَفَعَ لِيَ الدُّنْيَا فَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهَا وَإِلَى مَا هُوَ كَائِنٌ فِيهَا إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ كَأَنَّمَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى كَفِّي هَذِهِ ، جَلِيَّانِ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ جَلاهُ لِنَبِيِّهِ كَمَا جَلاهُ لِلنَّبِيِّينَ قَبْلَهُ
The Messenger of Allah (sallalahu `Alayhi wa sallam) one day said : ” Verily Allah ta`la raised and placed this world in front of me such that i am seeing everything in it and that which is about to occur until Qiyamah just like how i see this hand of mine. This is a clear (divine) manifestation (bestowal – جَلِيَّانِ) for his prophet just like how he manifested (similar blessings) for the prophets before

The chain of narration that comes in Tabraani and Hilyatul Awliya
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ ، ثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ ، ثَنَا نُعَيْمُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، ثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ ، ثَنَا أَبُو الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ ، عَنْ كَثِيرِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ

7) Hafidh Ibn Hajar said :
He is a muddalis and is reporting from `an and as per the principle, his narration cannot be authenticated until his sam`a is affirmed
