The Verse Revealed at 'Arafat

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Jews who wished they had received the verse of Quran 5:3, which was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) while he was at 'Arafat.

Narrated Tariq bin Shibab: Some Jews said, "Had this Verse been revealed to us, we would have taken that day as 'Id (festival)"'.Umar said, "What Verse?" They said:-- "This day I have Perfected your religion for you, Completed My Favor upon you And have chosen for you Islam as your religion" (5:3) 'Umar said, "I know the place where it was revealed; It was revealed while Allah's Messenger was staying at 'Arafat".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ أُنَاسًا، مِنَ الْيَهُودِ قَالُوا لَوْ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِينَا لاَتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا‏.‏ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ أَيَّةُ آيَةٍ فَقَالُوا ‏{‏الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي‏}‏‏.‏ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنِّي لأَعْلَمُ أَىَّ مَكَانٍ أُنْزِلَتْ، أُنْزِلَتْ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a verse from the Quran that was revealed to Prophet Muhammad ﷺ while he was staying in Arafat. The Jews were envious of this verse and wished they could have received it as well.

This hadith teaches us that Allah's favors are only bestowed upon those He chooses, and we should be content with what we have been given instead of envying others for their blessings.
