"عَنْ أَنَس قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُول الله ﷺ : (أُمِرتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدوا أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إلَّا الله وَأنِّى رَسُولُ الله، وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلَاةَ، وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ) والله لَوْ مَنَعُونِى عِقَالًا مِمَّا كَانُوا يُعْطُونَ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ لأُقَاتِلَنَّهمْ عَلَيْهِ".

Collected by Nasāʾī, Ibn Mājah, Aḥmad, Ḥākim, Nasāʾī's Kubrá, Bayhaqī, Suyūṭī"When the Messenger of Allah [SAW] died, the 'Arabs apostatized, so 'Umar said: 'O Abu Bakr, how can you fight the 'Arabs?' Abu Bakr said: 'The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: "I have been commanded to fight the people until they bear witness to La ilaha illallah (there is none worthy of worship except Allah) and that I am the Messenger of Allah, and they establish Salah and pay Zakah." By Allah, if they withhold from me a young goat that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah [SAW], I will fight them for it.' 'Umar said: 'By Allah, as soon as I realized how certain Abu Bakr was, I knew that it was the truth.'"
لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ارْتَدَّتِ الْعَرَبُ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ كَيْفَ تُقَاتِلُ الْعَرَبَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ وَاللَّهِ لَوْ مَنَعُونِي عَنَاقًا مِمَّا كَانُوا يُعْطُونَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَقَاتَلْتُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُ رَأْىَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ قَدْ شُرِحَ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ الْحَقُّ
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'I have been commanded to fight the people until they testify to La ilaha ill-allah (none has the right to be worshipped but Allah) and that I am the Messenger of Allah, and establish regular prayers and pay Zakat.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَيُقِيمُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَيُؤْتُوا الزَّكَاةَ

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "I have been commanded to fight the people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, establish prayer, and give zakat. Then their blood and wealth shall be unlawful to me, except in accordance with Islamic law, and their reckoning is with Allah."
