\nNarrated Ibn Abi Mulaika:\n \n\nThe two righteous persons were about to be ruined. They were Abu Bakr and `Umar who raised their \nvoices in the presence of the Prophet (ﷺ) when a mission from Bani Tamim came to him. One of the two \nrecommended Al-Aqra' bin Habeas, the brother of Bani Mujashi (to be their governor) while the other \nrecommended somebody else. (Nafi`, the sub-narrator said, I do not remember his name). Abu Bakr \nsaid to `Umar, "You wanted nothing but to oppose me!" `Umar said, "I did not intend to oppose you." \nTheir voices grew loud in that argument, so Allah revealed: \n'O you who believe! Raise not your voices above the voice of the Prophet.' (49.2) Ibn Az-Zubair \nsaid, "Since the revelation of this Verse, `Umar used to speak in such a low tone that the Prophet (ﷺ) had \nto ask him to repeat his statements." But Ibn Az-Zubair did not mention the same about his (maternal) \ngrandfather (i.e. Abu Bakr).\n

\nحَدَّثَنَا يَسَرَةُ بْنُ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ جَمِيلٍ اللَّخْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، قَالَ كَادَ الْخَيِّرَانِ أَنْ يَهْلِكَا ـ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ رَفَعَا أَصْوَاتَهُمَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ قَدِمَ عَلَيْهِ رَكْبُ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ، فَأَشَارَ أَحَدُهُمَا بِالأَقْرَعِ بْنِ حَابِسٍ أَخِي بَنِي مُجَاشِعٍ، وَأَشَارَ الآخَرُ بِرَجُلٍ آخَرَ ـ قَالَ نَافِعٌ لاَ أَحْفَظُ اسْمَهُ ـ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لِعُمَرَ مَا أَرَدْتَ إِلاَّ خِلاَفِي‏.‏ قَالَ مَا أَرَدْتُ خِلاَفَكَ‏.‏ فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا فِي ذَلِكَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ‏{‏يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ‏}‏ الآيَةَ‏.‏ قَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَمَا كَانَ عُمَرُ يُسْمِعُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَعْدَ هَذِهِ الآيَةِ حَتَّى يَسْتَفْهِمَهُ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ذَلِكَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ‏.‏
