13735 - From Ibn 'Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), regarding "Indeed, those for whom the best [reward] has preceded from Us," he said: "They are the allies of Allah; they will pass over the Path (al-Sirat) at a speed faster than lightning, so it will not strike them. They will hear its rumbling, while the disbeliever remains trapped therein."

13736 - From al-Nu'man ibn Bashir: That 'Ali read: "Indeed, those for whom the best [reward] has preceded from Us – they are from it far removed," and he said: "I am among them, 'Umar is among them, 'Uthman is among them, al-Zubayr is among them, Talhah is among them, and Sa'd and 'Abd al-Rahman are among them."

His saying, the Almighty: "They will not hear its rumbling."

He said: 'I am among them, 'Umar is among them, 'Uthman is among them, al-Zubayr is among them, Talhah is among them, and 'Abd al-Rahman is among them,' or he said: 'Sa'd is among them.'
