伊本·阿萨基尔记载，阿尼萨说：艾卜·伯克尔在被任命为哈里发之前，与我们同住了三年，任职之后又住了一年。街区里的女仆们会牵着自己的羊群来到他这里，他便替她们挤奶。

Ibn cAsakir narrated that Anisah said: Abu Bakr was settled among us for three years before he was appointed khalifah and a year afterwards, and the servant girls of the quarter would come to him with their flocks and he would milk them for them.

艾哈迈德在《az-Zuhd》中转述，迈蒙·本·米赫兰说：有一个人来到艾布·伯克尔面前，说：“愿平安降临你（as-salamu alaika，单数的称呼形式），真主使者的哈里发。”艾布·伯克尔说：“你应当在所有这些人之中如此问候。”（那人只向在场的他一人致以问候。）

Ahmad narratd in az-Zuhd that Maymun ibn Mihran said: A man came to Abu Bakr and said, ‘Peace be upon you (as-salamu alaika -the singular form of address) Khalifah of the Messenger of Allah.’ And he said, ‘In among all of these.’ (The man had greeted him exclusively of those present).

Abu Salih al-Ghifari说,欧麦尔·伊本·黑塔卜每晚会照料麦地那郊外的一位年迈的盲人妇女。他会为她打水让她饮用,并替她料理事务。有时他来到她那里时,会发现已经有别人先到了,替她做完了她需要的事。他去了不止一次,为的是不让对方抢在他前面。欧麦尔埋伏等候,结果来的人是艾布·伯克尔,而那时他已是哈里发。欧麦尔说:"以我的性命发誓,原来是你!" 艾布·努阿伊姆等人转述,阿卜杜·拉赫曼·阿斯巴哈尼说:哈桑·伊本·阿里来到艾布·伯克尔那里,当时艾布·伯克尔正站在先知ﷺ的讲台上,哈桑说:"请从我父亲的座位上下来。"艾布·伯克尔说:"你说得对,这是你父亲的座位。"于是他把哈桑抱在怀里,哭了起来。

Abu Salih al-Ghifari said that cUmar ibn al-Khattab used to take care of an elderly blind woman in one of the outskirts of Madinah at night. He would draw water for her to drink, and would undertake her business. Sometimes when he came to her he would find that someone else had already beaten him to her and done what she wanted. He came to her more than one time so that the other might not beat him to her. cUmar lay in wait for him, and it was Abu Bakr who had come to her, and he was at that time khalifah. cUmar said, ‘You are he, by my life!’ Abu Nucaym and others narrated that cAbd ar-Rahman al-Asbahani said: Al-Hasan ibn cAli came to Abu Bakr when he was upon the minbar of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and said, ‘Come down from my father’s seat.’ He said, ‘You have told the truth, it is your father’s seat,’ and he placed him in his lap and wept.

阿里说："以真主发誓，这不是出于我的命令。"他说："你说的是实话。以真主发誓，我并没有怀疑你。"

'Ali said, ‘By Allah, this was not from my command.’ He said, ‘You have told the truth. By Allah, I did not suspect you.’

Ibn Sa'd 传述,Ibn 'Umar 说:真主的使者ﷺ在伊斯兰第一次朝觐时任命Abu Bakr主持朝觐,随后真主的使者ﷺ在次年亲自朝觐。真主的使者ﷺ去世后,Abu Bakr被任命为哈里发,他任命'Umar主持朝觐,随后Abu Bakr在次年亲自朝觐。Abu Bakr去世后,'Umar被任命为哈里发,他任命'Abd ar-Rahman ibn 'Awf主持朝觐,随后'Umar每年都亲自朝觐,直至去世。之后'Uthman被任命为哈里发,他任命'Abd ar-Rahman ibn 'Awf主持朝觐。

Ibn Sacd narrated that Ibn cUmar said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, appointed Abu Bakr to lead the Hajj in the first Hajj of Islam, then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, performed the Hajj the following year. When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, died and Abu Bakr was appointed khalifah, he put cUmar in charge of leading the Hajj, then Abu Bakr performed the Hajj the following year. When Abu Bakr died and cUmar was appointed khalifah, he put cAbd ar-Rahman ibn cAwf in charge of the Hajj, then cUmar continued to perform the Hajj every year until he died. cUthman was then appointed khalifah, and he put cAbd ar-Rahman ibn cAwf in charge of the Hajj.
