حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ
لَمَّا قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ: مِنَّا أَمِيرٌ وَمِنْكُمْ أَمِيرٌ، فَأَتَاهُمْ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ: يَا مَعْشَرَ الْأَنْصَارِ، أَلَسْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ النَّاسَ؟ قَالُوا: بَلَى، قَالَ: فَأَيُّكُمْ تَطِيبُ نَفْسُهُ أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ؟ قَالَتِ الْأَنْصَارُ: نَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أَنْ نَتَقَدَّمَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ.

✧ When the Prophet ﷺ passed away, the Ansar said: 'From us an amir and from you an amir.' Umar came to them and said: 'O assembly of Ansar, do you not know that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded Abu Bakr to lead the people in prayer?' They said: 'Yes.' He said: 'So which of you would be pleased to go ahead of Abu Bakr?' The Ansar said: 'We seek refuge in Allah from going ahead of Abu Bakr.'
