Narrated 'Abdullah bin Shaqiq:
"I said to 'Aishah: 'Which of the companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) ﷺ were the most beloved to him?' She said: 'Abu Bakr.' I said: 'Then who?' She said ' 'Umar.' I said: 'Then who?' She said: 'Then Abu 'Ubaidah bin Al-Jarrah.'" He said: I said: 'Then who?'" He said: "Then she was silent."
