[Machine] "Do you hear the companions of the Messenger of Allah being insulted in your presence? Do not deny or change, for I bear witness to the Messenger of Allah with what my ears have heard and my heart has comprehended from the Messenger of Allah. I did not fabricate lies about him when I was asked about him. If I were to meet him and someone asked me about him, I would say that Abu Bakr is in Paradise, and Umar is in Paradise, and Ali is in Paradise, and Uthman is in Paradise, and Talhah is in Paradise, and Zubayr is in Paradise, and Abdur-Rahman is in Paradise, and Saad ibn Malik is in Paradise, and the ninth of the believers is in Paradise. If I were to name him, I would name him. The people in the mosque became agitated and asked him, "O companion of the Messenger of Allah, who is the ninth?" He said, "You have asked me by Allah and Allah is Great. I am the ninth of the believers, and the Messenger of Allah is the tenth. Then he pointed with his right hand and said, "I swear by Allah, a man's witness in which his face is covered with the Messenger of Allah is better than the deed of any of you, even if he lived the lifespan of Prophet Noah, ﷺ ."
