حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ
أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَالُوا لِعُمَرَ: إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَؤُونَ آيَةً لَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ فِينَا لَاتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ أُنْزِلَتْ، وَأَيَّ يَوْمٍ أُنْزِلَتْ، وَأَيْنَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حِينَ أُنْزِلَتْ، أُنْزِلَتْ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: وَأَشُكُّ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ، أَوْ لَا، يَعْنِي: الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلامَ دِينًا.

✧ The Jews said to ʿUmar: You recite a verse which, if it had been revealed among us, we would have taken that day as a festival. He said: I know where it was revealed, on which day it was revealed, and where the Messenger of God ﷺ was when it was revealed. It was revealed on the day of ʿArafah, while the Messenger of God ﷺ was standing at ʿArafah. Sufyān said: And I am uncertain whether it was a Friday or not — meaning: “This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.”
