Allah agreed with How to interpret the hadith concerning Umar on three things hadithdirection of prayer, hijab, and advising the Prophet's wives?

Please accept my apology if this questions offends, but in the pursuit of Islamic knowledge, we cannot afford to be shy for fear that if we are not well advised, we may commit a sin.

ThisThe following hadith in Sahih Bukhari (sunnah.com) seems to suggest Allah agreed with Umar on three things:

  1. theThe direction of prayer changed to qiblahqiblah;

  2. The Divine Versedivine verse of Hijabhijab; and

  3. And Umar advising Prophet MuhammadMuhammad's (saw) wives with waswhen they were troubling him.

Narrated Anas: Umar said, "I agreed with Allah in three things," or said, "My Lord agreed with me in three things. I said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Would that you took the station of Abraham as a place of prayer.' I also said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Good and bad persons visit you! Would that you ordered the Mothers of the believers to cover themselves with veils.' So the Divine Verses of Al-Hijab (i.e. veiling of the women) were revealed. I came to know that the Prophet (ﷺ) had blamed some of his wives so I entered upon them and said, 'You should either stop (troubling the Prophet (ﷺ) ) or else Allah will give His Apostle better wives than you.' When I came to one of his wives, she said to me, 'O Umar! Does Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) haven't what he could advise his wives with, that you try to advise them?' " Thereupon Allah revealed:-- "It may be, if he divorced you (all) his Lord will give him instead of you, wives better than you Muslims (who submit to Allah).." (66.5)

Narrated Anas: 'Umar said, "I agreed with Allah in three things," or said, "My Lord agreed with me in three things. I said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Would that you took the station of Abraham as a place of prayer.' I also said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Good and bad persons visit you! Would that you ordered the Mothers of the believers to cover themselves with veils.' So the Divine Verses of Al-Hijab (i.e. veiling of the women) were revealed.

" Thereupon Allah revealed:-- "It may be, if he divorced you (all) his Lord will give him instead of you, wives better than you Muslims (who submit to Allah).." (66.5)

Does this mean Umar was receiving inspiration guidance from Allah?! When only the prophetProphet Muhammad (saw) is the true source of Divinedivine guidance from Allah swt? Can you offer explantionexplanation from ibn hajar or classical scholars i dont want modern interpration?
