Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ وَعَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَنْبَأَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ كُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْ
هُ قَالَ نَهَانِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أَجْعَلَ الْخَاتَمَ فِي هَذِهِ أَوْ فِي هَذِهِ قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ لِأُصْبُعَيْهِ السَّبَّابَةِ وَالْوُسْطَى

English Translation
Qais al-Kharifi (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that I heard ‘Ali (رضي الله عنه) say: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came first, followed by Abu Bakr, and the third one was ‘Umar (رضي الله عنهما). Then turmoil (fitnah) struck us, and that is what Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, willed. Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman said; My father said regarding the words, then turmoil (fitnah) struck us. He was showing modesty thereby.
