"عَنْ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: لمَّا قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتِ الأَنْصَارُ: مِنَّا أمِيرٌ وَمِنْكُم أَمِيرٌ. فَأَتَاهُمْ (عُمَرُ) فَقَالَ (*): يَا مَعْشَرَ الأَنْصَارِ: أَلَسْتُم تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ أَمَرَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ أَنْ يؤُمَّ النَّاسَ؟ فَأَيُّكُمْ تَطِيبُ نَفْسُه أَنْ يَتَقَدَّمَ أَبَا بَكْرٍ؟ فَقَالَتِ الأَنْصَارُ: نَعُوذُ بِاللهِ أنْ نَتَقَدَّمَ أَبا بَكْرٍ".
