Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Regarding three things, my opinion coincided with the command of my Lord (the narrator is doubtful, perhaps these are the words) my Lord’s command coincided with my opinion. I submitted: O Messenger of Allah! If you make the Maqam Ibrahim a place of prayer, it would be appropriate. So Allah Almighty revealed this verse:“Take the Maqam Ibrahim as a place of prayer.”I submitted: Righteous and sinful (all kinds of people) come to your service, so if you instruct the Mothers of the Believers to observe veiling (it would be appropriate), then the verse regarding the command of hijab was revealed. Then once, regarding a matter of the Mothers of the Believers, something reached me, so I submitted: Either you women of the Prophet (peace be upon him) will refrain (from causing distress to him), or Allah Almighty will grant the Prophet (peace be upon him) wives better than you. Until I went to the service of one of the Mothers of the Believers, and she said: O Umar! The Prophet (peace be upon him) never admonished his wives, and you go around admonishing them, so I refrained from this, but Allah Almighty revealed this verse:“If he (the Prophet) divorces you, his Lord will give him in exchange wives better than you.”
