ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الدَّالِّ عَلَى أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ كَانَ مِنَ الْمُحَدَّثِينَ فِي هَذِهِ الْأُمَّةِ
that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Among the nations, there used to be Muhaddathun (those who were given understanding), and if there were one in my nation, it would be 'Umar bin Al-Khattab." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 3693)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «قَدْ كَانَ يَكُونُ فِي الْأُمَمِ مُحَدَّثُونَ فَإِنْ يَكُنْ فِي أُمَّتِي أَحَدٌ فَهُوَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ»
