Narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I have agreed with my Lord in three matters. I said: If we take the Maqam Ibrahim as a place of prayer, then this verse was revealed {وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاہِیمَ مُصَلًّی} … "Take the Maqam Ibrahim as a place of prayer." I said: O Messenger of Allah! Good and bad people enter upon your wives; if you order them to observe veiling, it would be better, so the verse of veiling was revealed. And when the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gathered with him out of jealousy, I said: It may be that if the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) divorces you, Allah will give him better wives in your place, so in the same way the verse was revealed.
