حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ قَالَ كَتَبَ إِلَيَّ هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ قَالَتْ
قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ يَوْمًا وَاللَّهِ مَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ رَجُلٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ عُمَرَ فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ رَجَعَ فَقَالَ كَيْفَ حَلَفْتُ أَيْ بُنَيَّةُ؟ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ فَقَالَ أَعَزُّ عَلَيَّ وَالْوَلَدُ أَلْوَطُ
Translation
'A'isha said, "Abu Bakr said, 'By Allah, there is no man on the face of the earth that I love better than 'Umar.' Then he went out and came back and said, 'How did I swear, daughter?' I told him what he had said. Then he said, 'He is dearer to me although one's child is closer (to one's heart).'"
