حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ مُوسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ الْقُرَظِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُقْبِلُ بِوَجْهِهِ وَحَدِيثِهِ عَلَى أَشَرِّ الْقَوْمِ يَتَأَلَّفُهُمْ بِذَلِكَ فَكَانَ يُقْبِلُ بِوَجْهِهِ وَحَدِيثِهِ عَلَيَّ حَتَّى ظَنَنْتُ أَنِّي خَيْرُ الْقَوْمِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَا خَيْرٌ أَوْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ؟ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَا خَيْرٌ أَوْ عُمَرُ؟ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَا خَيْرٌ أَوْ عُثْمَانُ؟ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ فَلَمَّا سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَصَدَقَنِي فَلَوَدِدْتُ أَنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ سَأَلْتُهُ

"Allah’s Messenger ﷺ used to speak directly with the worst of people, thereby winning their hearts. He used to do the same with me, so that I thought I was the best of the people, so I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, am I better, or Abu Bakr?' He said: 'Abu Bakr,' so I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, am I better, or 'Umar?' He said: ‘Umar,' so I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, am I better, or 'Uthman?' He said: 'Uthman!' Whenever I asked Allah’s Messenger, he told me the truth, so I wished I had not asked him!’”
