I heard ʿAli ؓ say: Each Prophet ﷺ was given seven advisers from his nation and the Prophet ﷺ was given fourteen advisers from his ummah, among them Abu Bakr and ʿUmar ؓ .
سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ أُعْطِيَ كُلُّ نَبِيٍّ سَبْعَةَ نُجَبَاءَ مِنْ أَمَّتِهِ وَأُعْطِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ نَجِيبًا مِنْ أُمَّتِهِ مِنْهُمْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ
A man narrated to me from ʿAbdullah bin Mulail that he said: I heard ʿAli ؓ say: Each Prophet ﷺ was given seven nobles, but your Prophet ﷺ was given fourteen nobles, including Abu Bakr, ʻUmar, ‘Abdullah bin Masʿood and ‘Ammar bin Yasir. ؓ
سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُ أُعْطِيَ كُلُّ نَبِيٍّ سَبْعَةَ نُجَبَاءَ وَأُعْطِيَ نَبِيُّكُمِ أَرْبَعَةَ عَشَرَ نَجِيبًا مِنْهُمْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَعَمَّارُ بْنُ يَاسِرٍ
