3681. Ibn ‘Umar narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “O Allāh! Honor Islām through the most dear of these two men to you: Through Abū Jahl or through ‘Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb.” He said: “And the most dear of them to Him was ‘Umar.” (Hasan) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Sahīh Gharīb as a narration of Ibn ‘Umar.
٣٦٨١ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ الْعَقَدِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَارِجَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ أَعِزَّ الْإِسْلَامَ بِأَحَبِّ هَذَيْنِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ إِلَيْكَ؛» بِأَبِي جَهْلٍ أَوْ بِعُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ: وَكَانَ أَحَبَّهُمَا إِلَيْهِ عُمَرُ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ.

Of the gifts of Allāh to ‘Umar is determination, ability, maturity, and the power of decision making. What was right in his opinion, he guarded it and faced every kind of obstructions in its way. When he embraced Islam, the Muslims got a new spirit and new power, and they started praying in the premises of the Ka’bah.
