6066 - وعن ابي بكرة - رضي الله عنه - ان رجلا قال لرسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم -: رايت كان ميزانا نزل من السماء، فوزنت انت وابو بكر، فرجحت انت، ووزن ابو بكر وعمر فرجح ابو بكر، ووزن عمر وعثمان، فرجح عمر ; ثم رفع الميزان  ، فاستاء لها رسول الله - صلى الله عليه وسلم - يعني فساءه ذلك. فقال: (خلافة نبوة، ثم يؤتي الله الملك من يشاء) رواه الترمذي، وابو داود.
Abu Bakra told that a man said to God's messenger, "I saw as though a scale descended from the sky. You and Abu Bakr were weighed and you were heavier Abu Bakr and `Umar were weighed and Abu Bakr was heavier; `Umar and `Uthman were weighed and `Umar was heavier; then the scale was taken up." God's messenger was grieved about that, meaning that what the man told him grieved him. He then said, "There will be a caliphate on the model of prophecy, then God will give the kingdom to whom He wills." Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud transmitted it.
