حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ خَيْرٍ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وعَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ وعَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
خَيْرُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَخَيْرُهَا بَعْدَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عُمَرُ، وَلَوْ شِئْتُ سَمَّيْتُ الثَّالِثَ
