It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that on one occasion the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) appointed Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) as the leader over some people. The people objected to his leadership. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you are objecting to his leadership, this is nothing new; before this, you also objected to his father's leadership, even though, by Allah, he was worthy of leadership and was the most beloved of people to me, and now this son of his, after him, is the most beloved to me."
