"عن أبى جحيفة قال: دخلتُ عَلَى عليٍّ في بَيْتِهِ فقلتُ: يَا خَيْرَ النَّاسِ! بَعْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ فَقَالَ: مَهْلًا يَا أبا جُحَيْفَةَ، أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكَ بِخَيْرِ النَّاسِ بَعْدَ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ ؟ أبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ في قَلبِ مؤْمِنٍ".

"Abu Juhayfah said: I entered upon 'Ali in his house and I said: O best of people after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ! He said: Gently, O Abu Juhayfah. Shall I not inform you of the best of people after the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? Abu Bakr and 'Umar are in the heart of a believer."
