Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 36161 — Book of History

It is narrated from Abu Ishaq that Abdullah bin Utbah and a man of Hamdan disagreed about a matter. The man of Hamdan said: Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) was older than the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Abdullah said: No, rather the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was older than Abu Bakr. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away at the age of sixty-three, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away at the age of sixty-three. Amir bin Sa'd al-Bajali said: I will judge between you. Sayyiduna Jarir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated to me that he was with Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), and Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away at the age of sixty-three, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) passed away at the age of sixty-three, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was martyred at the age of sixty-three, and I am fifty-seven years old today.
