Messenger (may peace be upon him) and in this connection he narrated
some of the ahadith and Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him)
said: It was said to people of Israel: Enter this land saying Hitta
(Remove Thou from us the burden of our sins), whereupon We would
forgive you your sins, but they twisted (this statement) and entered
the gate dragging upon their breech and said: The "grain in the ear."

Tariq b. Shihab reported
that a Jew said to'Umar: You recite a verse which, if it had been
revealed in relation to us, we would have taken that day as the day of
rejoicing. Thereupon 'Umar said: I know where it was revealed and on
the day when it was revealed and where Allah's Messenger (may peace be
upon him) had been at that time when it was revealed. It was revealed
on the day of 'Arafa (ninth of Dhu'l Hijjah) and Allah's Messenger
(may peace be upon him) had been staying in 'Arafat. Sufyan said: I
doubt, whether it was Friday or not (and the verse referred to) is
this: "Today I have perfected your religion for you and completed My
favours upon you "(v. 4).

Tariq b. Shihab reported
that a Jew said to 'Umar: If this verse were revealed in relation to
the Jews (i.e. "This day I have perfected your religion for you and
have completed My favours for you and have chosen for you al-Islam as
religion") we would have taken the day of rejoicing on which this
verse was revealed. Thereupon 'Umar said: I know the day on which it
was revealed and the hour when it was revealed and where Allah's
Messenger (may peace be upon him) had been when it was revealed. It
was revealed on the night of Friday and we were in 'Arafat with
Alleh's Messenger (may peace be upon him) at that time.
Book 43,
Number 7155:
Tariq b. Shihab reported
that a Jew came to 'Umar and said: Commander of the Faithful, there is
a verse in your Book, which you recite. Had it been revealed in
connection with the Jews, we would have taken it as the day of
rejoicing. Thereupon he said: Which verse do you mean? He replied:
"This day I have perfected your religion for you and I have completed
My favours upon you and I have chosen al-Islam as religion for you."
Umar said, I know the day when it was revealed and the place where it
was revealed. It was revealed to Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon
him) at 'Arafat on Friday.
Book 43,
Number 7156:
'Urwa b. Zubair reported
that he asked 'A'isha about the words of Allah: "If you fear that you
will not be able to maintain equity amongst the orphan girls, then
marry (those) you like from amongst the women two, three or four." She
said: O, the son of my sister, the orphan girl is one who is under the
patronage of her guardian and she shares with him in his property and
her property and beauty fascinate him and her guardian makes up his
mind to marry her without giving her due share of the wedding money
and is not prepared (to pay so much amount) which anyone else is
prepared to pay and so Allah has forbidden to marry these girls but in
case when equity is observed as regards the wedding money and they are
prepared to pay them the full amount of the wedding money and Allah
commanded to marry other women besides them according to the liking of
their heart. 'Urwa reported that 'A'isha said that people began to
seek verdict from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) after the
revelation of this verse about them (orphan girls) and Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse: "They asked thee verdict
about women; say: Allah gives verdict to you in regard to them and
what is recited to you in the Book about orphan woman, whom you give
not what is ordained for them while you like to marry them" (iv. 126).
She said: The wording of Allah "what is recited to you" in the Book
means the first verse, i.e. "if you fear that you may not be able to
observe equity in case of an orphan woman, marry what you like in case
of woman" (iv. 3). 'A'isha said: (And as for this verse [iv. 126],
i.e. and you intend "to marry one of them from amongst the orphan
girls" it pertains to one who is in charge (of orphans) having small
amount of wealth and less beauty and they have been forbidden that
they should marry what they like of her wealth and beauty out of the
orphan girls, but with equity, because of their disliking for them.
Book 43,
Number 7157:
'Urwa reported that he
asked 'A'isha about the words of Allah: "If you fear that you will not
be able to observe equity in case of orphan girls"; the rest of the
hadith is the same but with a slight variation of wording.
Book 43,
Number 7158:
'A'isha said that as for
the words of Allah: "If you fear that you would not be able to observe
equity in case of orphan girls)," it was revealed in reference to a
person who had an orphan girl (as his ward) and he was her guardian,
and her heir, and she possessed property, but there was none to
contend on her behalf except her ownself. And he (her guardian) did
not give her in marriage because of her property and he tortured her
and ill-treated her, it was in relation to her that (Allah said:) "If
you fear that you would not be able to observe equity in case of
orphan girls, then marry whom you like among women," i.e. whatever I
have made lawful for you and leave her whom you are putting to
torture.
Book 43,
Number 7159:
'A'isha said in
connection with His words (those of Allah): "What is recited to you in
the Book about orphan women whom you give not what is ordained for
them, while you like to marry them," these were revealed in connection
with an orphan girl who was in the charge of the person and she shared
with him in his property and he was reluctant to marry her himself and
was also unwilling to marry her to someone else (fearing) that (that
person) would share in his property (as the husband of that girl),
preventing her to marry, neither marrying her himself nor marrying her
to another person.
Book 43,
Number 7160:
Hisham reported that
'A'isha said in connection with the words of Allah: "They ask thee the
religious verdict about women, say: Allah gives you the verdict about
them" (iv. 126), that these relate to an orphan girl who is in charge
of the person and she shares with him in his property (as a heir) even
in the date-palm trees and he is reluctant to give her hand in
marriage to any other person lest he (her husband) should partake of
his property, and thus keep her in a lingering state.
Book 43,
Number 7161:
Hisham reported on the
authority of his father that 'A'isha said in connection with His
(Allah's) words: "And whoever is poor let him take reasonably (out of
it)" that it was revealed in connection with the custodian of the
property of an orphan, who is in charge of her and looks after her; In
case he is poor, he is allowed to eat out of that.
Book 43,
Number 7162:
'A'isha reported in
connection with the words of Allah, the Exalted: "He who is rich
should abstain, and he who is poor may reasonably eat (out of it)"
that this was revealed in relation to the guardian of an orphan who is
poor; he may get out of that what is reasonable keeping in view his
own status of solvency.

connection with the verse: "And if a woman has reason to fear
ill-treatment from her husband or that he might turn away from her"
(iv. 128) that it was revealed in case of a woman who had long
association with a person (as his wife) and now he intends to divorce
her and she says: Do not divorce me, but retain me (as wife in your
house) and you are permitted to live with another wife. It is in this
context that this verse was revealed.
Book 43,
Number 7166:
'A'isha said in
connection with these words of Allah, the Exalted and Glorious: "And
if a woman has reason to fear ill-treatment from her husband or that
he might turn away from her" that it was revealed in case of a woman
who lived with a person and perhaps he does not want to prolong (his
relationship with her) whereas she has had sexual relationship with
him (and as a result thereof) she got a child from him and she does
not like that she should be divorced, so she says to him: I permit you
to live with the other wife.
Book 43,
Number 7167:

and he said: Nothing has abrogated it. And as for this verse: "And
they who call not upon another god with Allah and slay not the soul
which Allah has forbidden ,except in the cause of justice" (xxv. 68),
he (Ibn Abbas) said: This has been revealed in regard to the

Number 7172:
Ibn 'Abbas said: This
verse was revealed in Mecca : "And they who call not upon another god
with Allah and slay not the soul which Allah has forbidden except in
the cause of justice" up to the word Muhdana (abased). Thereupon the
polytheists said: Islam is of no avail to us for we have made peer
with Allah and we killed the soul which Allah had forbidden to do and
we committed debauchery, and it was (on this occasion) that Allah, the
Exalted and Glorious, revealed this verse: "Except him who repents and
believes and does good deeds" up to the end Ibn 'Abbis says: He who
enters the fold of Islam and understands its command and then kills
the soul there is no repentance for him.
Book 43,
Number 7173:
Sa'id b. Jubair reported:
I said to Ibn Abbas: Will the repentance of that person be accepted
who kills a believer intentionally ? He said: No. I recited to him
this verse of Sura al-Furqan (xix.): "And those who call not upon
another god with Allah and slay not the soul which Allah has forbidden
except in the cause of justice" to the end of the verse. He said: This
is a Meccan verse which has been abrogated by a verse revealed at
Medina: "He who slays a believer intentionally, for him is the
requital of Hell-Fire where he would abide for ever," and in the
