It is narrated from Huzayl bin Shurahbil (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Commander of the Believers, Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), said: "If the faith of Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) were compared with the faith of all the inhabitants of the earth and weighed against them, the faith of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) would certainly outweigh the faith of them all."
Mu'adh bin al-Muthanna recorded this narration in Ziyadat Musaddad; all its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), and Imam al-Bayhaqi also narrated it in Shu'ab al-Iman as a saying of Sayyiduna Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him).
