197 - Shurayj b. Yūnus narrated to us, who said: Yaḥyā b. Zakariyyā b. Abī Zāʾida narrated to me, who said: I heard Mujālid say: I bear witness regarding Abū al-Dardāʾ that he said: I bear witness regarding Abū Saʿīd that he said: I bear witness that the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said: "The people of Paradise will surely see the people of ʿIlliyyīn just as you see the star that is in the horizon of the sky, and indeed Abū Bakr and ʿUmar are among them, and how excellent they are." Then Ismāʿīl b. Abī Khālid, who was with him on the carpet, said: "I bear witness regarding ʿAṭiyya that he bore witness regarding Abū Saʿīd that he bore witness regarding the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, to the like of this."
