حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو صَالِحٍ الْحَكَمُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا شِهَابُ بْنُ خِرَاشٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ قَالَ

كُنْتُ أَرَى أَنَّ عَلِيًّا أَفْضَلُ النَّاسِ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ، قُلْتُ: لَا وَاللهِ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، إِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ أَرَى أَنَّ أَحَدًا مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَفْضَلُ مِنْكَ، قَالَ: أَفَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ بِأَفْضَلِ النَّاسِ كَانَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بَلَى، فَقَالَ: أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَقَالَ: أَفَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِخَيْرِ النَّاسِ كَانَ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَبِي بَكْرٍ ؟ قُلْتُ: بَلَى، قَالَ: عُمَرُ

✧ I used to think that 'Ali was the most excellent of people after the Messenger of God ﷺ. He mentioned the hadith. I said: 'No, by God, O Commander of the Believers, I did not think that anyone among the Muslims after the Messenger of God ﷺ was more excellent than you.' He said: 'Shall I not tell you of the most excellent of people after the Messenger of God ﷺ?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Abu Bakr.' He said: 'Shall I not inform you of the best of people after the Messenger of God ﷺ and Abu Bakr?' I said: 'Yes.' He said: ''Umar.'
