He has been awarded with a lot of praise by Our Beloved Prophet Hazrat MUHAMMAD Sallalaho alaih wassalm and said that If there had been any messenger after me, it would have been UMER (radi Allahu anhu).

There are many hadith that mention the Good qualities and special position of Umar bin Khattab (radi Allahu anhu).

Abu Saeed al Khudri reported that Muhammad said: “Every prophet has two wazeer (ministers) from the dwellers of the heaven (angels) and two wazeer from the inhabitants of the earth. So, my wazeer from the dwellers of heaven are Jibrael and Mikael, and my wazeer from the earthlings are Abu Bakr (radi Allahu anhu) and Umar (radi Allahu anhu).” from Jami Tirmidhi

Ibn Umar (radi Allahu anhu) said that one day, Muhammad (radi Allahu anhu) came out and entered the masjid, Abu Bakr (radi Allahu anhu) and Umar (radi Allahu anhu) with him, to his right and left. Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) had held their hands, and he said, “The three of us will be raised on the Day of Resurrection in this way.” from Jami Tirmidhi

Abu Saeed al Khudri (radi Allahu anhu) reported that he heard Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) say, “While I was asleep, I dreamt that people were brought to me, all of them wearing shirts. Some of the shirts reached only up to the chest, and some a little below the chest. Umar ibn al-Khattab (radi Allahu anhu) was also brought to me. His shirt was so long that it trailed on the ground, and he dragged it along as he walked.” Some of the Sahaba asked him its interpretation, and he (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, “Religion.” from Sahih Bukhari and Muslim

Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu) reported that Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, “Among the earlier ummah there have been muhaddath (who are blessed by Allah with inspiration). So if there is one in my ummah (who is blessed) then he is Umar (radi Allahu anhu).” from Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim

Abu Zarr (radi Allahu anhu) reported that he heard Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) say, “Allah has placed Truth on Umar’s tongue, and he speaks only the truth.” From Abu Dawood

Ibn Umar (radi Allahu anhu)  reported that Umar (radi Allahu anhu) said, “My thinking abided with my Lord on three matters (on which His Command was about to be revealed): the station of Ibrahim, the hijab, and the captives of the battle of Badr.” From Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim.
