101 - حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ، وَالْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ: قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، أَيُّ النَّاسِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْكَ؟ قَالَ: «عَائِشَةُ» قِيلَ: مِنَ الرِّجَالِ؟ قَالَ: «أَبُوهَا»

Commentary
a. The Hadith clearly affirms the superior position not only of Abu Bakr ﷺ but also of 'Âishah ﷺ. b. Abu Bakr and 'Âishah ﷺ were the best beloved of all to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. Therefore, anyone who loves them would be loved by the Prophet ﷺ, and he who harbors hostility or enmity towards them would attract the displeasure of the Prophet ﷺ. His full name is 'Umar bin Khattab bin Nufail bin 'Abdul 'Uzza bin Riyâh bin 'Abdullâh bin Qurat bin Razâh bin 'Adi bin Ka'b bin Lu'ai bin Ghâlib Al-Qurashi Al-'Adawi; nicknamed Abu Hafs, known by the title Amirul-Mu'minin (Commander of the Faithful) and Fâruq. His mother's name was Hantamah bint Hâshim. He was born thirty years before the Mission of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. He met his martyrdom in 23 AH.
