Narrated Aslam:While Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was proceeding at night during one of his journeys and `Umar bin Al-Khattab was traveling beside him, `Umar asked him about something but Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not reply. He asked again, but he did not reply, and then he asked (for the third time) but he did not reply. On that, `Umar bin Al-Khattab said to himself, "Thakilat Ummu `Umar (May `Umar's mother lose her son)! I asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) three times but he did not reply." `Umar then said, "I made my camel run faster and went ahead of the people, and I was afraid that some Qur'anic Verses might be revealed about me. But before getting involved in any other matter. I heard somebody calling me. I said to myself, 'I fear that some Qur'anic Verses have been revealed about me,' and so I went to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and greeted him. He (Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ) said, 'Tonight a Sura has been revealed to me, and it is dearer to me than that on which the sun rises (i.e. the world)' Then he recited: "Verily, We have given you a manifest victory
Aslam bataate hain: Ek safar mein Allah ke Rasool (SAW) raat ko chal rahe the aur Umar bin Al-Khattab unke saath the, Umar ne unse kuch pucha magar Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ne jawab nahi diya. Unhone dobara pucha, phir bhi jawab nahi diya, phir teesri baar pucha, phir bhi jawab nahi diya. Isper Umar bin Al-Khattab ne apne dil mein kaha, 'Thakilat Ummu Umar (kaash Umar ki maa apna beta kho de)! Maine Allah ke Rasool (SAW) se teen baar pucha magar unhone jawab nahi diya.' Umar ne aage kaha, 'Maine apne oont ko tez daudaaya aur logon se aage nikal gaya, aur mujhe dar hua ke kahin mere baare mein koi Quraani Aayat naazil na ho. Magar iske pehle ke kisi aur baat mein ulajhoon, maine kisi ko mujhe bulaate suna. Maine dil mein socha, "Mujhe dar hai ke mere baare mein koi Quraani Aayat naazil ho gayi hai," to main Allah ke Rasool (SAW) ke paas gaya aur salaam kiya. Unhone farmaya, "Aaj raat mujhpar ek Surah naazil hui hai, jo mujhe us (duniya) se zyaada pyaari hai jispar suraj chamakta hai." Phir unhone padha: "Beshak Humne tumhein khuli fatah di hai."'
