سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: نا أَيُّوبُ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، قَالَ: أَمَّا الَّذِي قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ»، فَإِنَّهُ قَضَاهُ أَبًا "
It is narrated from Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If I were to take anyone as a close friend (khalil) in this Ummah, I would have taken Abu Bakr; thus, it is as if you have given him the status of a father."
