"عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَامَ إِلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَنْ خَيْرُ النَّاسِ؟ فَقَالَ: رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَنْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ: إِذَا عُدَّ الصَّالِحُونَ فَأتِ بِأَبِي بكْرٍ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ مَنْ؟ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِذَا عُدَّ الْمُجَاهِدُونَ فَأتِ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: عُمَرُ مَعِي حَيْثُ حَلَلْتُ، وَأَنَا مَعَ عُمَرَ حَيْثُ حَلَّ، وَمَنْ أَحَبَّ عُمَرَ فَقَدْ أَحَبَّنِي، وَمَنْ أَبْغَضَ عُمَرَ فَقَدْ أَبْغَضَنِي".

"From Ibn 'Abbas, that a man stood before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, who is the best of people?' He said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Then who, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'When the righteous are counted, then come to Abu Bakr.' He said: 'Then who?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'When those who strive are counted, then come to 'Umar ibn al-Khattab.' Then he said: ''Umar is with me wherever I dismount, and I am with 'Umar wherever he dismounts. Whoever loves 'Umar has loved me, and whoever hates 'Umar has hated me.'"
