حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو جُحَيْفَةَ الَّذِي كَانَ عَلِيٌّ يُسَمِّيهِ وَهْبَ الْخَيْرِ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَا أَبَا جُحَيْفَةَ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ أَفْضَلَ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ بَلَى وَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَرَى أَنَّ أَحَدًا أَفْضَلُ مِنْهُ قَالَ أَفْضَلُ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ بَعْدَ نَبِيِّهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَبَعْدَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا وَبَعْدَهُمَا آخَرُ ثَالِثٌ وَلَمْ يُسَمِّهِ
Abu Hujayfah, who used to be called Wahb al-Khayr by Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), narrates that Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: O Abu Hujayfah! Shall I not tell you who is the most virtuous person in this Ummah after the Prophet? I said: Yes, please tell me. And I thought that after the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), there could be no one more virtuous than Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). But he said: After the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the most virtuous in this Ummah is Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), after him Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and after them a third man, then he did not mention his name.
