3680. Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "There is no Prophet except that he has two ministers among the inhabitants of the heavens, and two ministers among the inhabitants of the earth. As for my two ministers from the inhabitants of the heavens, then they are Jibrīl and Mikā'il, and as for my two ministers from the inhabitants of the earth, then they are Abū Bakr and 'Umar." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadith is Hasan Gharib. Abū Al-Jahhāf's (a narrator in the chain) name is Dāwud bin Abī ‘Awf. And it is related from Sufyān Ath-Thawrī, that he said: “Abū Al-Jahhāf narrated to us – and he was acceptable.” [And Talīd bin Sulaimān’s Kunyah is Abū Idrīs and he is Shīrī].

٣٦٨٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو سَعِيدٍ الْأَشَجُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌تَلِيدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْجَحَّافِ ، عَنْ ‌عَطِيَّةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلَّا لَهُ وَزِيرَانِ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ،» وَوَزِيرَانِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ، فَأَمَّا وَزِيرَايَ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّمَاءِ فَجِبْرِيلُ وَمِيكَائِيلُ، وَأَمَّا وَزِيرَايَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ فَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. وَأَبُو الْجَحَّافِ اسْمُهُ دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَوْفٍ. وَيُرْوَى عَنْ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَحَّافِ وَكَانَ مَرْضِيًّا.
