Sahih al-Bukhari 4833

Translation

While Messenger of Allah ﷺ was proceeding at night during one of his journeys and ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab was traveling beside him, ʿUmar asked him about something but Messenger of Allah 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, ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab said to himself, "Thakilat Ummu ʿUmar (May ʿUmar's mother lose her son)! I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ three times but he did not reply." ʿUmar 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 Messenger of Allah ﷺ and greeted him. He (Messenger of Allah 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." (48.1)
