(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ ، قَالَ : إِنَّ الَّذِي قَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا سِوَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ " جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zubair that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) once said regarding that person: If I were to take anyone from this Ummah as my close friend (khalil) other than my Lord, I would have taken Ibn Abi Quhafah. They have considered the grandfather as the father.
