أَخْبَرَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعُمَيْسِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ
«قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يَسْتَخْلِفْ» قَالَتْ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ مُسْتَخْلِفًا أَحَدًا لَاسْتَخْلَفْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ»
