679. hadíth
وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «أَحَبُّ اَلصَّحَابَةِ إِلَى اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَرْبَعَةٌ وَ مَا زَادَ قَوْمٌ عَلَى سَبْعَةٍ إِلاَّ كَثُرَ لَغَطُهُمْ ».
The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings of Allah (swt) be upon him and his family) said: "The most beloved companions to Allah, the Almighty, are four. And any group that exceeds seven will have excessive commotion."
