Ahmed, well it's a matter of opinion, but for me it is since it does cover all or most of the Agile methods and approaches. As I wrote in my Scrum blog:
"94% of respondents use Scrum in their Agile practices. This is broken down into two main areas. While only 16% use Scrum exclusively, 78% use a mixture of Scrum with other approaches such as XP and Kanban."

The point here is: what does mean "best" for the organization? For example, in Europe, DSDM is more used than Scrum mainly into UK Government. Saving Changes...
Scrum is a very well recognised framework within the UK, as is DSDM, the scrum sprint is popular when using the ''free format time boxes' and the DSDM approach when using the 'structured timebox' within the project. Saving Changes...

I agree with you @Julie. So, to reinforce my previous comment, in my personal experience the key is to define "best" for the organization where people have to use something to create something. The first thing to do is to evaluate the whole enterprise architecture to define the impacts.I was part of the authors of DSDM version 1 and 2. At this time DSDM was free to use. Perhaps, if that strategy had been kept perhaps the history would be different. At the end, DSDM is a method while Scrum is a framework and as you wrote things from DSDM can be used into Scrum.

What i mean about the best is (the most used and required in the market).

Ok. Well in my personal opinion, and generally speaking, it that´s not matter. I am saying generally speaking because you can use some variables like human resources available, available knowledge in the market, etc, etc that can influence your decision. But matters in my personal experience when some organization request my services to implement Agile and mostly and Agile based method the first thing I do is to evaluate the enterprise architecture to make an impact analysis. To do that I use Tom Peter´s Seven S model to get an initial state of situation.
For the org structure, scale & projects/industry sector im working in (i.e. banking/finance), yes definitely works best! Used JIRA software, the built-in tools allows team collaboration- and cross-platform functionality etc so the efficiency/response time definitely improved for projects that need short delivery turnaround, very impressed with it! License may be restricted for certain org, eg. government agencies etc though. No idea of the use in the construction, engineering sectors etc would be interesting to know! Saving Changes...
Scrum is definitely the most referenced when companies are asked which framework they are following (58% in the Version One State of Agile survey), but if you were to analyze adherence to the core Scrum values, key artifacts, roles and ceremonies you will find a large variation in practice.
