Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 2-1373b
"عن سالم بن عبيد وكان من أصحاب الصُّفَّةِ قال: كان أبو بكرٍ عند رسول اللَّه ﷺ فقيل له: يا صاحبَ رسول اللَّه، تُوُفِّى رسولُ اللَّه ﷺ ؟ قال: نعم، فعلموا أنه كما قال، ثُمَّ خرج فاجتمعَ المهاجرون يتشاورون، فبينما هم كذلك إذ قالوا: انطَلِقوا بنا إلى إخواننا من الأنصار، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ من الأنصار: منا رجلٌ ومنكم رجلٌ، قال عُمَرُ: سَيْفَانِ في غِمْدٍ واحد إِذَنْ لَا يَصْطلِحَانِ، فَأَخَذَ بيد أَبى بكر وقال: من هذا الذى له هذه الثلاث؟ "إِذْ هما في الغار" (من هما؟ ) إذ يقول لصاحبه (من صاحبه) "لا تحزن إن اللَّه معنا" - (مع من هو؟ )، فبسط عمر يد أَبى بكر فقال: بايعوه؛ فبايع الناس أَحْسَنَ بَيْعةٍ وأجملها".

On the authority of Salim ibn 'Ubayd, who was among the People of the Suffah, who said: Abu Bakr was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he was told, "O companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, has the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died?" He said, "Yes." They knew that it was as he said. Then he went out, and the Muhajirun gathered to consult. While they were in that state, they said, "Come, let us go to our brothers from the Ansar." A man from the Ansar said, "From us a man, and from you a man." 'Umar said, "Two swords in one sheath, then they will not agree." He took Abu Bakr's hand and said, "Who is this one who has these three attributes?" "When they were both in the cave" (who were they?) "When he said to his companion, 'Do not grieve, indeed Allah is with us'" (with whom is He?). 'Umar then extended Abu Bakr's hand and said, "Pledge allegiance to him." So the people pledged allegiance in the best and most graceful manner.
