اُردوEn
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنْ يُؤَمَّرُ بَعْدَكَ قَالَ ”إِنْ تُؤَمِّرُوا أَبَا بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ تَجِدُوهُ أَمِينًا زَاهِدًا فِي الدُّنْيَا رَاغِبًا فِي الْآخِرَةِ وَإِنْ تُؤَمِّرُوا عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ تَجِدُوهُ قَوِيًّا أَمِينًا لَا يَخَافُ فِي اللَّهِ لَوْمَةَ لَائِمٍ وَإِنْ تُؤَمِّرُوا عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَلَا أُرَاكُمْ فَاعِلِينَ تَجِدُوهُ هَادِيًا مَهْدِيًّا يَأْخُذُ بِكُمُ الطَّرِيقَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that it was asked from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him): "After you, whom should we appoint as the leader?" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you appoint Abu Bakr as the leader, you will find him such that he will have no desire for the world and will have longing for the Hereafter. If you appoint Umar as the leader, you will find him strong and trustworthy, who will not care about the blame of any blamer regarding Allah. And if you appoint Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) as the leader, you will find him a guide and rightly guided, who will lead you to the straight path. But I think you will not appoint him as the caliph."
