وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه
قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: «لقد كان فيما قبلكم من الأمم ناس محدثون، فإن يك في أمتي أحد، فإنه عمر»
The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “There were Muhaddithun (the recipients of Divine inspiration) among the nations before you. If there is any of such Muhaddith among my followers, he must be Umar”. In Muslim, this Hadith is narrated by Aishah (radiyallahu anha), and in both these narrations Ibn Wahb has said that the meaning of Muhaddithun is recipients of Divine inspiration.
