Hadith 6068
وَعَن عَائِشَة قَالَتْ: بَيْنَا رَأْسَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حجري لَيْلَةٍ ضَاحِيَةٍ إِذْ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ يَكُونُ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ الْحَسَنَاتِ عَدَدُ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ عُمَرُ» . قُلْتُ: فَأَيْنَ حَسَنَاتُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ؟ قَالَ: «إِنَّمَا جَمِيعُ حَسَنَاتِ عُمَرَ كَحَسَنَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ مِنْ حَسَنَاتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ» رَوَاهُ رزين
`A'isha said: While God's messenger's head was on my lap on a moonlight night I asked, "Messenger of God, has anyone done as many good deeds as there are stars in the sky?" He replied, "Yes„ `Umar has." I asked how Abu Bakr's good deeds compared and he replied, "All `Umar's good deeds are like one of Abu Bakr's good deeds." Razin transmitted it.
