Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34128 — Reports on Abu Bakr al-Siddiq

Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out to us one morning and said: "Just now I saw in a dream that I was given keys and a balance. As for the keys, they are these. Then I was placed in one pan of the balance and my Ummah was placed in the other pan, and my pan outweighed. Then Abu Bakr was brought and his pan too was heavier. Then Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was brought and his pan too was heavier. Then Uthman was brought and his pan too was heavier. Then the balance was lifted away." The narrator said: A man asked him (peace and blessings be upon him): "Where will we be?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Where you place yourselves."
