Sayyiduna Abu Juhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports: I went to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "O best person of this Ummah after the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)!" He said: "Wait, O Abu Juhayfah! Shall I not tell you about the best person of this Ummah after its Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" I said: "Yes, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you." He said: "Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)." Then he said: "O Abu Juhayfah! Shall I not tell you about the best person of this Ummah after Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him)?" I said: "Yes, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you."

Shall I not tell you about the best of it (this Ummah) after Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him)?" I said: "Yes, may my father and mother be sacrificed for you." He said: "Another man." And he did not name him.
