58 — ‘Abdullāh narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, saying: Abū Mu‘āwiyah narrated to us, saying: Suhayl ibn Abī Sālih narrated to us, from his father, from Ibn ‘Umar, who said:
“While the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was alive and his Companions were numerous, we used to rank Abū Bakr, ‘Umar, and ‘Uthmān, then say no more.”
٥٨ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، قثنا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قثنا سُهَيْلُ بْنُ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: كُنَّا نَعُدُّ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَيٌّ وَأَصْحَابُهُ مُتَوَافِرُونَ: أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرُ، وَعُثْمَانُ، ثُمَّ نَسَكْتُ.
