100. It was narrated from 'Awn bin Abi Juhaifah that his father said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Abu Bakr and 'Umar are the leaders of the mature people of Paradise, the first and the last, except for the Prophets and Messengers.'" (Hasan)
100 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو شُعَيْبٍ صَالِحُ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ الْوَاسِطِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْقُدُّوسِ بْنُ بَكْرِ بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ مِغْوَلٍ، عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ أَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ سَيِّدَا كُهُولِ أَهْلِ الْجَنَّةِ مِنَ الْأَوَّلِينَ وَالْآخِرِينَ، إِلَّا النَّبِيِّينَ وَالْمُرْسَلِينَ»

A Nabi (Prophet) is one who receives the revelation while the Rasul (Messenger) is a special category of the Prophets. Some scholars hold that a Rasul, as distinct from Nabi, is the one given a separate Book and Law, and sent down towards a particular nation or people. As for the Nabi, he keeps him company and engages in preaching among the people the message delivered to the Rasul. The revelation (Wahy) is, however, sent down to both.
