3689. Narrated Abū Hurairah رضي الله عنه: Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Among the nations (who lived) before you there were Muhaddathūn (people who were inspired, though they were not Prophets). And if there is any of such a person amongst my followers, it is 'Umar." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Among the nation (who lived) before you from Banī Isrāēl, there were men who used to be inspired with guidance, though they were not Prophets, and if there is any of such persons amongst my followers, it is 'Umar."

3689 - حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ قَزَعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَقَدْ كَانَ فِيمَا قَبْلَكُمْ مِنَ الأُمَمِ مُحَدَّثُونَ، فَإِنْ يَكُ فِي أُمَّتِي أَحَدٌ، فَإِنَّهُ عُمَرُ» زَادَ زَكَرِيَّاءُ بْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «لَقَدْ كَانَ فِيمَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ رِجَالٌ، يُكَلَّمُونَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَكُونُوا أَنْبِيَاءَ، فَإِنْ يَكُنْ مِنْ أُمَّتِي مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ فَعُمَرُ» قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: «مِنْ نَبِيٍّ وَلاَ مُحَدَّثٍ»
