[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to take anyone as my intimate friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr as my intimate friend. However, the brotherhood of Islam is superior." This means that Abu Bakr was made a father, which means a grandfather.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا أَحَدًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُهُ خَلِيلًا وَلَكِنْ أُخُوَّةُ الْإِسْلَامِ أَفْضَلُ» يَعْنِي «أَبَا بَكْرٍ جَعَلَهُ أَبًا» يَعْنِي الْجَدَّ
[Machine] I have the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, if I were to take a close friend besides Allah, I would have chosen Abu Bakr as my paternal grandfather until I meet him.
لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا سِوَى اللهِ حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ جَعَلَ الْجَدَّأَبًا

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "No one is better than Ali in terms of favors from Ahlul Bayt nor in terms of wealth than Abu Bakr. If I were to take a close friend, I would have chosen him, but brotherhood in Islam or Iman is sufficient."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَا أَحَدٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلُ عَلِيَّ فِي نِعْمَةِ أَهْلٍ وَلَا مَالٍ مِنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُهُ وَلَكِنْ أُخُوَّةُ الْإِسْلَامِ أَوِ الْإِيمَانِ»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If I were to take a close friend (khalil) other than Allah, I would have taken Abu Bakr as my close friend (khalil)." So he made Abu Bakr his close advisor.
لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا حَتَّى أَلْقَى اللهَ سِوَى اللهِ لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَلِيلًا» فَكَانَ يَجْعَلُ الْجَدَّ أَبًا
[Machine] "He was the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , if I were to take a close friend, I would have taken Abu Bakr, as he made him his father through lineage."
لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُهُ خَلِيلًا يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ ؓ جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا
لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لَاتَّخَذْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ خَلِيلًا جَعَلَ الْجَدَّ أَبًا
"مَا أَحَدٌ مِنْ النَّاسِ أَفْضَلَ عَلَيَّ نِعْمَةً في أهْلٍ وَمَالٍ من أَبِي بَكْرٍ، وَلَوْ كُنْتُ مُتَّخِذًا خَلِيلًا لاتَّخذْتُهُ، وَلَكِنْ أُخُوَّة الإِسْلامِ".
