[Machine] "We agreed with Ali, who had a good soul and was joking, so we said to him, tell us about your companions. He said, 'All the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ are my companions.' We then said, tell us about Abu Bakr. He said, 'That is a man whom Allah called "Siddiq" (the truthful) on the tongue of Jibril and Muhammad (peace be upon them).' Halal bin Al-`A'laa denies the hadith."  

وَافَقَنَا عَلِيًّا طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ وَهُوَ يَمْزَحُ فَقُلْنَا حَدَّثَنَا عَنْ أَصْحَابِكَ قَالَ كُلُّ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَصْحَابِي فَقُلْنَا حَدَّثَنَا عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ «ذَاكَ امْرَؤٌ سَمَّاهُ اللَّهُ صِدِّيقًا عَلَى لِسَانِ جِبْرِيلَ وَمُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِمَا» هلال بن العلاء منكر الحديث
