3791. Anas bin Mālik narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "The most merciful of my nation to my nation is Abū Bakr, and the most severe of them concerning the order of Allāh is 'Umar, and the most truly modest of them is 'Uthmān bin 'Affān. The best reciter (of the Qur'ān) among them is Ubayy bin Ka'b, the most knowledgeable of them concerning (the laws of) inheritance is Zaid bin Thābit, the most knowledgeable of them concerning the lawful and the unlawful is Mu'ādḥ bin Jabal. Truly, every nation has a trustworthy one, and the trustworthy one of this nation is Abū 'Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrāḥ."(Saḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Saḥīḥ.
