I said to my father: Which of the people after the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم is best? He replied: Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ. I then asked: Who comes next? He said: Umar. I was then afraid of asking him who came next, and he might mention Uthman رضی اللہ عنہ, so I said: You came next, O my father? He said: I am only a man among the Muslims.
