Abdullah bin Shaqiq narrates: I asked Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): "Of all the women, who was the most beloved to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) replied: "Aishah." I asked: "And who among the men?" She replied: "Her father."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
