أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ قُتَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُتَوَكِّلِ بْنِ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ الضَّرِيرُ عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

«كُنَّا نُفَاضِلُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ثُمَّ عُمَرُ ثُمَّ عُثْمَانُ ثُمَّ نَسْكُتُ»
