"عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عَلَاقَةَ قَالَ: رَأَى عُمَرُ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ: إِنَّ هَذَا لَخيْرُ الأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا، فَجَعَلَ عُمَرُ يَضْرِبُ الرَّجُلَ بِالدِّرَّةِ وَيَقُولُ: كذَبَ الآخَرُ، لأَبُو بَكْرٍ خَيْرٌ مِنِّى وَمِنْ أَبِى، وَمِنْكَ وَمِنْ أَبِيكَ".

"From Ziyad ibn 'Ilaqah, who said: 'Umar saw a man saying: Indeed this is the best of the Ummah after its Prophet. So 'Umar began to strike the man with the whip and say: The other one lied! Abu Bakr is better than me and than my father, and than you and your father."
