nasai-kubra:3522 – Abū Dāwud > Yaʿlá > al-Aʿmash > ʿAmr b. Murrah > Abū al-Bakhtarī > Abū Barzah > Marart from my father

"I passed by Abu Bakr and he was furious with one of his companions. I said: 'O Khalifah of the Messenger of Allah, who is the one with whom you are furious?' He said: 'Why are you asking about him?' I said: 'I will strike his neck (kill him).' By Allah, the seriousness of what I said took away his anger. Then he said: 'That is not for anyone after Muhammad [SAW].'"

مَرَرْتُ عَلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَهُوَ مُتَغَيِّظٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقُلْتُ يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ هَذَا الَّذِي تَغَيَّظُ عَلَيْهِ؟ قَالَ وَلِمَ تَسْأَلُ؟ قُلْتُ أَضْرِبُ عُنُقَهُ قَالَ فَوَاللهِ يَعْنِي لَأَذْهَبَ عِظَمُ كَلِمَتِي غَضَبَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا كَانَتْ تِلْكَ لِأَحَدٍ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ
