When do you follow the Sunnah of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, such as 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him and be satisfied with him) is among the Sunnahs...

The Shaykh : 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) is one of the Rightly Guided Caliphs, and he is the second of the Caliphs of the Ummah. It is he and his companion Abu Bakr about whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

Stick to the two after me

اقتدوا بالذين من بعدي

Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3662Hasan (Darussalam)

This is a clear text

Abu Bakr and 'Umar

أبي بكر وعمر

. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said on one of his journeys:

So if you had obeyed Abu Bakr and Umar, you would have gone on the right path

إن يطيعوا أبابكر وعمر يرشدوا

Sahih Muslim 681

. He did not restrict it, so 'Umar has a Sunnah to be followed, just like Abu Bakr, except if it contradicts the Sunnah of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), for it is known that this is not accepted. Yes, let us see what was not taken... Yes.
