[6264] 63 - (2426) It was narrated from 'Abdullâh bin Dînâr that he heard Ibn 'Umar say: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ sent an expedition and he appointed Usâmah bin Zaid in charge of them. The people objected to his command and the Messenger of Allâh ﷻ stood up and said: 'You object to his command and you objected to the command of his father before him. By Allâh, he (his father) was fit to command, and he was one of the dearest of people to me, and he (Usâmah) is one of the dearest of people to me after him.'"
