حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ:، أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَالُوا لِعُمَرَ: إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَ آيَةً لَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ (٤) فِينَا لاتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ أُنْزِلَتْ، وَأَيَّ يَوْمٍ أُنْزِلَتْ، وَأَيْنَ رَسُولُ، ، اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ أُنْزِلَتْ؛ أُنْزِلَتْ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ - قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: وَأَشُكُّ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ أَوْ لَا - يَعْنِي: {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ دِينًا} [المائدة: ٣] (١) .،

It was narrated from Tariq bin Shihab that:

The Jews said to `Umar. You recite a verse which, is it had been revealed among us, we would have taken that day as a festiva!. ʻUmar said: I know where it was revealed, on what day it was revealed and where the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was when it was revealed. It was revealed on the day of `Arafah, when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was standing in `Arafah, Sufyan said: I am not sure whether it was a Friday or not, i.e., `This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion.” (al-Ma’idah 5:3).
