Abu’l-Qasim al-Baghawi 记载，伊本·阿比·穆莱凯说：阿布·伯克尔被问及一段经文，他说：“如果我对安拉之书中的一段经文说出安拉所未意欲的话，那么哪片土地能承载我，哪片天空能庇护我？” Abu cUbaydah 记载，易卜拉欣·塔伊米说：阿布·伯克尔被问及安拉至高至大的话语“以及水果和牧草”（《古兰经》80:31），他说：“如果我对安拉之书说出我所不知道的话，那么哪片天空能庇护我，哪片土地能承载我？” Al-Bayhaqi 等人记载，阿布·伯克尔被问及“卡拉莱”（al-Kalalah），他说：“我将说出我的看法：如果正确，那是来自安拉；如果错误，那是来自我，也来自恶魔。”

Abu’l-Qasim al-Baghawi narrated that Ibn Abi Mulaykah said: Abu bakr was asked about an ayah and he said, ‘What land would hold me or what sky would shade me if I were to say about an ayah of the Book of Allah that which Allah did not wish?’ Abu cUbaydah narrated that Ibrahim at-Taymi said: Abu Bakr was asked about His words, exalted is He, And fruits and herbage,’ (Qur’an 80: 31) and he said, ‘Which sky would shade me and what land would sustain me if I were to say about the Book of Allah that which I do not know?’ Al-Bayhaqi and others narrated that Abu Bakr was asked about al-Kalalah and he said, ‘I will say my view on it and if it is correct it is from Allah, and if it is wrong it is from me and from shaytan.

我认为是那种既没有子女也没有尚存的父母来继承他的人。”欧麦尔被任命为哈里发时说：“我羞于推翻艾布·伯克尔所说的话。”艾布·努艾姆在《圣徒装饰》（al-Hilyah）中记载，阿斯瓦德·本·希拉尔说：

I think that it is the one who has no child nor parent (surviving to inherit from him).’ When cUmar was appointed khalifah he said, ‘I am shy of rejecting something which Abu Bakr said.’ Abu Nucaym narrated in al-Hilyah that al-Aswad ibn Hilal said:

8 因为有理智的人会从对受造物的审视中，领悟造物主的伟大。真主至知。

8 Since the intelligent man derives from his glance at the creation, the greatness of the Creator. And Allah knows best.

艾布·伯克尔对他的同伴们说:“你们怎么看这两节经文:‘确实,那些说“我们的主是真主”,然后坚持正道的人……’(《古兰经》41:30)以及‘那些信道而不以不义混淆其信仰的人……’(《古兰经》6:82)?”他们说:“那就是坚持正道,不做恶行,也不以错误混淆其信仰。”他说:“你们赋予了它一个它无法承载的含义。”接着他说:“他们说‘我们的主是真主’,然后坚持正道,所以他们不偏向真主之外的任何神灵,也不以以物配主(归于真主以伙伴)混淆其信仰。” 伊本·জারির记述道,阿米尔·伊本·萨德·al-巴贾利转述艾布·伯克尔·al-绥迪格关于真主至高无上的话语:“对行善者,有最美好的报酬,还有更多的赏赐。”(《古兰经》10:26)他说:“是凝望真主尊颜。” 伊本·জারির记述道,艾布·伯克尔关于真主至高无上的话语:“确实,那些说‘我们的主是真主’,然后坚持正道的人……”(《古兰经》41:30)说:“人们已经这样说了。所以,死时仍保持这一点的人,就是坚持正道者。”

Abu Bakr said to his companions, ‘What do you say about these two ay at, “Truly, the ones who say, ‘Our Lord is Allah’, and then go straight, ...” (Qur’an 41: 30) and “And the ones who believe and do not clothe their belief in wrongdoing ...”? (Qur’an 6: 82).’ They said, ‘Then they go straight and do not do wrong actions and do not clothe their belief in error.’ He said, ‘You have made it to carry a meaning which it cannot carry.’ Then he said, ‘They say, “Our Lord is Allah,” and then they go straight, so they do not incline towards a god other than Him and do not clothe their belief in shirk (associating others as partners with Him).” Ibn Jarir narrated that cAmir ibn Sacd al-Bajili related from Abu Bakr as-Siddiq about His words, exalted is He, ‘For the ones who do excellently well there is the very best and morel (Qur’an 10: 26) that he said, ‘Gazing on the face of Allah, exalted is He.’ Ibn Jarir narrated that Abu Bakr said about His words, exalted is He, ‘Truly the ones who say, “Our Lord is Allah,” and then go straight, ...’ (Qur’an 41: 30), that he said, ‘People have said it. So whoever dies upon that is of those who go straight.’
