حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: " أَفْرَسُ النَّاسِ ثَلَاثَةٌ: صَاحِبَةُ مُوسَى الَّتِي قَالَتْ: {يَا أَبَتِ اسْتَأْجِرْهُ إِنَّ خَيْرَ مَنِ اسْتَأْجَرْتَ الْقَوِيُّ الْأَمِينُ} [القصص: ٢٦] ، قَالَ: وَمَا رَأَيْتِ مِنْ قُوَّتِهِ؟ قَالَتْ: جَاءَ إِلَى الْبِئْرِ وَعَلَيْهِ صَخْرَةٌ لَا يُقِلُّهَا كَذَا، وَكَذَا فَرَفَعَهَا، قَالَ: مَا رَأَيْتِ مِنْ أَمَانَتِهِ؟ قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أَمْشِي أَمَامَهُ فَجَعَلَنِي خَلْفَهُ، وَصَاحِبُ يُوسُفَ حَيْثُ قَالَ: {أَكْرِمِي مَثْوَاهُ عَسَى أَنْ يَنْفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا} [يوسف: ٢١] ، وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ حِينَ اسْتَخْلَفَ عُمَرَ "
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "The people of greatest discernment are three: the daughter of the father-in-law of Sayyiduna Musa (peace be upon him), who said: 'O my father, hire him; indeed, the best one you can hire is the strong and trustworthy' [Surah al-Qasas: 26]. Her father asked: 'What did you observe of his strength?' She said: 'He came to the well, on which there was a rock that so many (men together) could not lift, and he lifted it.' Her father asked: 'What did you observe of his trustworthiness?' She said: 'I was walking in front of him, and he put me behind him.' The second is the Egyptian master of Sayyiduna Yusuf (peace be upon him), who said: 'Make his residence honourable; perhaps he will benefit us, or we may adopt him as a son' [Surah Yusuf: 21]. And the third is Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), when he appointed Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) as his successor."
