What is the definitive and true statement regarding the narration of the story of Umar’s questioning of the two angels, especially given the presence of narrations and statements from scholars and hadith specialists that indicate its authenticity or حسن (fairness), while your previous fatwa (51055) stated that there is no evidence to indicate its authenticity?

The summary of the answer: What is narrated about Umar's questioning of the two angels (Who is your Lord?) has not been authentically reported in the well-known books. Rather, it appeared in the book "Al-Tabseer" by Abdul Wahid Al-Maqdisi without a chain of narration, and it was transmitted from him by Muhyiddin Al-Tabari. This story has appeared in several other narrations, some of which are mursal (lacking a complete chain of narrators) and some are mawsool (with a connected chain), but its appearance without a sufficient chain of narration is enough for its weakness. As for the part related to the description of the two angels and Umar's saying: "Then I will suffice you against them," Al-Iraqi discussed it in "Al-Mughni" and mentioned that Ibn Abi Al-Dunya narrated it mursal with reliable narrators, and Ibn Battah connected its chain. It was also narrated by Al-Bayhaqi, Ahmad, and Ibn Hibban.
