حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ الصَّابُونِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَهْلٍ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ قَالَ: نَا شُعَيْبُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ قَالَ: نَا مِسْعَرُ بْنُ كِدَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عَوْنٍ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ قَالَ:
قُلْتُ لِأَبِي: يَا أَبَتِ، مَنْ خَيْرُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا ؟ قَالَ: " أَبُو بَكْرٍ، قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَنْ ؟ قَالَ: " ثُمَّ عُمَرُ "، فَمَا مَنَعَنِي أَنْ أَسْأَلَهُ عَنِ الثَّالِثِ إِلَّا مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِعُثْمَانَ، فَقُلْتُ: فَمَا أَنْتَ ؟ قَالَ: " أَبُوكَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ

✧ I said to my father: “O father, who is the best of this community after its Prophet?” He said: “Abu Bakr.” I said: “Then who?” He said: “Then Umar.” Nothing prevented me from asking him about the third except fear that he would put ʿUthman next. I said: “And what are you?” He said: “Your father is a man among the Muslims.”
