3677. Abū Salamah bin ‘Abdur-Raḥmān narrated from Abū Hurairah, who said that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "While a man was riding a cow it said: 'I was not created for this, I was only created to till.'" So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I believe in that, myself, and Abū Bakr, and 'Umar." Abū Salamah said: "And the two of them were not among the people that day [and Allāh knows best]." (Another route) with this chain, similarly. (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

Commentary

This event proves that the Prophet ﷺ had complete trust in Abū Bakr and 'Umar, and he believed that they both will second him.
