أَرْأَفُ أُمَّتِي بِأُمَّتِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ ؓ، وَأَشَدُّهُمْ فِي الْإِسْلَامِ عُمَرُ ؓ، وَأَصْدَقُهُمْ حَيَاءً عُثْمَانُ ؓ، وَأَفْضَلُهُمْ عَلِيٌّ ؓ، وَأَفْرَضُهُمْ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ ؓ، وَأَعْلَمُهُمْ بِالْحَلَالِ وَالْحَرَامِ مُعَاذُ بْنُ جَبَلٍ ؓ، وَأَقْرَؤُهُمْ أُبَيُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ ؓ، وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍ أَمِينٌ، وَأَمِينُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ ؓ
