Chapter 8 · Prayers (Salat)مَا جَاءَ فِي الْقِبْلَةِ، وَمَنْ لاَ يَرَى الإِعَادَةَ عَلَى مَنْ سَهَا فَصَلَّى إِلَى غَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ
What has been reported about the qiblah, and those who do not consider it necessary for one who forgetfully prayed towards other than the qiblah to repeat (the prayer)
وَافَقْتُ رَبِّي فِي ثَلاَثٍ، فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوِ اتَّخَذْنَا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى فَنَزَلَتْ {وَاتَّخِذُوا مِنْ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ مُصَلًّى} وَآيَةُ الْحِجَابِ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لَوْ أَمَرْتَ نِسَاءَكَ أَنْ يَحْتَجِبْنَ، فَإِنَّهُ يُكَلِّمُهُنَّ الْبَرُّ وَالْفَاجِرُ. فَنَزَلَتْ آيَةُ الْحِجَابِ، وَاجْتَمَعَ نِسَاءُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْغَيْرَةِ عَلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ لَهُنَّ عَسَى رَبُّهُ إِنْ طَلَّقَكُنَّ أَنْ يُبَدِّلَهُ أَزْوَاجًا خَيْرًا مِنْكُنَّ. فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ عُمَرُ
Translation
Umar ibn al-Khattab reported: I agreed with my Lord in three (matters). I said, “O Messenger of Allah, if only we took the station of Ibrahim (Abraham, peace be upon him) as a place of prayer!” Then it was revealed: “And take the station of Ibrahim as a place of prayer.” And the verse of screening (hijab): I said, “O Messenger of Allah, if only you would command your wives to screen themselves, for both the righteous and the wicked speak to them.” Then the verse of screening was revealed. And the wives of the Prophet ﷺ banded together out of jealousy concerning him, so I said to them, “It may be that, if he divorces you, his Lord will give him in exchange wives better than you.” Then this verse was revealed.
Translator’s note: “And take the station of Ibrahim as a place of prayer”: Qur'an 2:125. The verse of screening: Qur'an 33:53. “It may be that … his Lord …”: Qur'an 66:5.

Umar ibn al-Chattab berichtete: Ich stimmte mit meinem Herrn in drei (Dingen) überein. Ich sagte: „O Gesandter Allahs, würden wir uns doch die Stätte Ibrahims (Abrahams, Friede sei mit ihm) zum Gebetsplatz nehmen!“ Da wurde herabgesandt: „Und nehmt euch die Stätte Ibrahims zum Gebetsplatz.“ Und der Vers der Verhüllung (Hidschab): Ich sagte: „O Gesandter Allahs, würdest du doch deinen Frauen befehlen, sich zu verhüllen, denn mit ihnen sprechen der Rechtschaffene und der Sündhafte.“ Da wurde der Vers der Verhüllung herabgesandt. Und die Frauen des Propheten ﷺ taten sich aus Eifersucht um ihn zusammen. Da sagte ich zu ihnen: „Vielleicht wird sein Herr ihm, wenn er sich von euch scheidet, zum Tausch bessere Gattinnen als euch geben.“ Da wurde dieser Vers herabgesandt.
Translator’s note: „Und nehmt euch die Stätte Ibrahims zum Gebetsplatz“: Koran 2:125. Der Vers der Verhüllung: Koran 33:53. „Vielleicht wird sein Herr …“: Koran 66:5.

Ömer b. Hattâb (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Üç hususta Rabbime muvafakat ettim. “Ey Allah'ın Resûlü, İbrâhim'in (a.s.) makamından bir namaz yeri edinsek!” dedim. Bunun üzerine “İbrâhim'in makamından bir namaz yeri edinin” âyeti indi. Bir de tesettür (hicap) âyeti: “Ey Allah'ın Resûlü, hanımlarına örtünmelerini emretsen; çünkü onlarla iyi de kötü de konuşuyor” dedim. Bunun üzerine tesettür âyeti indi. Nebî'nin ﷺ hanımları da kıskançlık sebebiyle ona karşı bir araya geldiler. Ben de onlara: “Eğer o sizi boşarsa, Rabbinin ona sizin yerinize sizden daha hayırlı eşler vermesi umulur” dedim. Bunun üzerine bu âyet indi.
Translator’s note: “İbrâhim'in makamından bir namaz yeri edinin”: Kur'ân 2:125. Tesettür âyeti: Kur'ân 33:53. “Rabbinin ona … vermesi umulur”: Kur'ân 66:5.
