بَابٌ فِيمَا وَرَدَ مِنَ الْفَضْلِ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ، وَغَيْرِهِمَا مِنَ الْخُلَفَاءِ ، وَغَيْرِهِمْ .
Reports on the virtues of Abu Bakr and Umar (may Allah be pleased with them), the other caliphs and others
Majma al-Zawaid 14365 — Reports on the virtues of Abu Bakr and Umar
وَعَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ : سَبَقَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَصَلَّى أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، وَثَلَّثَ عُمَرُ ، ثُمَّ خَبَطَتْنَا فِتْنَةٌ - أَوْ أَصَابَتْنَا فِتْنَةٌ - يَعْفُو اللَّهُ عَمَّنْ يَشَاءُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَقَالَ : ثُمَّ خَبَطَتْنَا فِتْنَةٌ ، يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَتَوَاضَعَ بِذَلِكَ . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْأَوْسَطِ ، وَرِجَالُ أَحْمَدَ ثِقَاتٌ .

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went ahead, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came second, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) came third. Then a trial (fitnah) threw us into confusion (the narrator is unsure; perhaps the words are:) then a trial befell us; Allah Almighty will pardon whomever He wills.
Ahmad recorded it. He said that Sayyiduna Ali's (may Allah be pleased with him) saying 'then a trial threw us into confusion' was meant as an expression of humility. Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and the narrators of Ahmad are thiqat (trustworthy).
