وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُقْرِئُ، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ:
كُنَّا مَعْشَرَ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ مُتَوَافِرُونَ نَقُولُ: أَفْضَلُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا ﷺ: أَبُو بَكْرٍ، ثُمَّ عُمَرُ، ثُمَّ عُثْمَانُ ؓ ثُمَّ نَسْكُتُ
