Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1570 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Jibril
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ، قَالَ : نَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْعَنَزِيُّ قَالَ : نَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ الْعِجْلِيُّ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ . عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ -صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ- : أَتَانِي جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا جِبْرِيلُ ، حَدِّثْنِي بِفَضَائِلِ عُمَرَ فِي السَّمَاءِ . فَقَالَ جِبْرِيلُ : لَوْ حَدَّثْتُكَ بِفَضَائِلِ عُمَرَ مَا لَبِثَ نُوحٌ فِي قَوْمِهِ أَلْفَ سَنَةٍ إِلَّا خَمْسِينَ عَامًا ، مَا نَفِدَتْ فَضَائِلُ عُمَرَ ، وَإِنَّ عُمَرَ حَسَنَةٌ مِنْ حَسَنَاتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا . I " لَمْ يَرْوِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ إِلَّا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ الْوَلِيدُ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Jibril (peace be upon him) came to me, and I said: O Jibril, tell me of the virtues of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) among the inhabitants of the heaven. Jibril (peace be upon him) said: If I were to tell you the virtues of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) for as long a period as Nuh (peace be upon him) remained among his people, that is, 'a thousand years less fifty years', even then the virtues of Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) would not be exhausted; and indeed Sayyiduna Umar is one of the good deeds of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both)."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Hammad (may Allah have mercy on him) except Isma'il (may Allah have mercy on him), and al-Walid (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
