It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when Sayyiduna Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) would permit the people of Badr to come to him, he would also allow me to join them in their presence. Some of the companions of Badr said, "Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) allows this young man to join us, while we have sons like him as well?" When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) found out, he said: "He is intelligent." One day, Sayyiduna Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) permitted the companions of Badr to come to him and also granted me permission to join them. He asked them about Surah Nasr. They said that in this Surah, Allah Almighty commanded His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that when victory is granted to him, he should seek forgiveness and repent. Then he asked me, "O Ibn Abbas! What do you say?" I replied, "My opinion is not that. In fact, in this Surah, Allah Almighty informed His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that the time of his death was near, and said that when the help of Allah comes and Makkah is conquered, and you see people entering the religion of Allah in crowds, then this is a sign of your passing. Therefore, glorify the praises of your Lord and seek forgiveness from Him. Surely, He is ever accepting of repentance." Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Now you have seen, so how can you blame me?"
