3686. 'Uqbah bin 'Āmir narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "If there was to have a Prophet after me, it would have been 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb." (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb. We do not know of it except through the narration of Mishrah bin Hā'an.
٣٦٨٦ - حَدَّثَنَا سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُقْرِئُ، عَنْ حَيْوَةَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ ، عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ مِشْرَحِ بْنِ هَاعَانَ ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كَانَ نَبِيٌّ بَعْدِي لَكَانَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ مِشْرَحِ بْنِ هَاعَانَ.
