This is a strange hadith from this chain of transmission. Some scholars have criticized al-Naḍr Abū ʿUmar, and he narrates rejected reports.

51 – Chapter

4016 – Muḥammad ibn al-Muthannā narrated to us, saying: ʿAbd Allāh ibn Dāwūd al-Wāsiṭī, Abū Muḥammad, narrated to us, saying: ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, the nephew of Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir, narrated to me, from Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir, from Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh, who said: ʿUmar said to Abū Bakr: "O best of people after the Messenger of Allāh, may Allāh bless him and grant him peace." Abū Bakr said: "As for you saying that, I indeed heard the Messenger of Allāh, may Allāh bless him and grant him peace, say: 'The sun has not risen upon any man...'"

= abandoned in hadith.

It was also narrated by ʿAbd Allāh ibn Aḥmad in his additions to his father's "Faḍāʾil al-Ṣaḥābah" (311), Ibn ʿAdī in "al-Kāmil" 7/2487, and al-Baghawī in "Sharḥ al-Sunnah" (3885). It is found with the compiler in "al-ʿIlal" 2/936.

The hadith of Ibn ʿUmar previously mentioned by the compiler under number (4013) suffices in its place.

On this topic, there are reports from ʿUmar, Anas, Ibn Masʿūd, and ʿUthmān ibn al-Arqam with weak chains of transmission; see their citations in "al-Musnad" (5696).

It has also been reported mentioning ʿUmar specifically from the hadith of ʿĀʾishah, as found with al-Ḥākim 3/83 and al-Bayhaqī 6/370, and its chain is sound. It is also found with Ibn Mājah (105) and Ibn Ḥibbān (6882) with a weak chain.

And from the hadith of Ibn Masʿūd, as found with Aḥmad in "al-Musnad" (4362), its wording is: "O Allāh, strengthen Islam with ʿUmar," and its chain is weak.
