Chapter 48 · The Book of the Merits of the Companionsحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْعَاصِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، بَعَثَهُ عَلَى جَيْشِ ذَاتِ السَّلَاسِلِ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ: أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: «عَائِشَةُ» قُلْتُ: مِنَ الرِّجَالِ؟ قَالَ «أَبُوهَا» قُلْتُ: ثُمَّ مَنْ؟ قَالَ: «عُمَرُ» فَعَدَّ رِجَالًا.

Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent him in command of the army despatched to Dhat-as-Salasil. When 'Amr b. al-'As came back to the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) he said: Who amongst people are dearest to you? He said: A'isha. He then said: Who amongst men? He said: Her father, and I said: And who next? He said: Umar. He then enumerated some other men.
