"إِنَّ اللهَ اختَارَ أصْحَابِى عَلى جميع الْعَالمِين سِوَى النبيِّين، وَالْمُرْسَلينَ، واختار لي مِنْ أصحَابى أربعةً فجَعلهم خيرَ أصْحابِى، وَفى كُلِّ أصْحَابى خير: أبو بكر، وعمرُ، وعثمانُ، وعليٌّ. واختار أُمَّتِي على سَائِرِ الأمم، فبعَثنى في خيرِ قرْنٍ، ثُمَّ الثَّانِي، ثُمَّ الثالث تَتْرَى؛ ثم الرابع فُرادى".

"Indeed Allah chose my Companions above all the worlds, apart from the Prophets and the Messengers. He chose four of my Companions for me and made them the best of my Companions, and among all my Companions there is good: Abu Bakr, 'Umar, 'Uthman, and 'Ali. He chose my Ummah above the rest of the nations, so He sent me in the best generation, then the second, then the third in succession, then the fourth individually."
