Majma al-Zawaid 14353 — Reports on the virtues of Abu Bakr and Umar
وَعَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " هَمَمْتُ أَنْ أَبْعَثَ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ ، وَسَالِمًا مَوْلَى أَبِي حُذَيْفَةَ ، وَأُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ ، وَابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ ، إِلَى الْأُمَمِ كَمَا بَعَثَ عِيسَى بْنُ مَرْيَمَ الْحَوَارِيِّينَ " . فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ : أَلَا تَبْعَثُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ فَإِنَّهُمَا أَبْلَغُ ؟ قَالَ : " لَا غِنًى بِي عَنْهُمَا ، إِنَّمَا مَنْزِلَتُهُمَا مِنَ الدِّينِ مَنْزِلَةُ السَّمْعِ وَالْبَصَرِ " .

Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I intended to send Mu'adh bin Jabal, Salim the freed slave of Abu Hudhayfah, Ubayy bin Ka'b and Abdullah bin Mas'ud to various peoples, just as Sayyiduna Isa bin Maryam (peace be upon him) sent the Disciples." A man said: "Why do you not send Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), for they would convey the message better?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I cannot do without these two, for their position in the religion is that of hearing and sight."
