Sahih al-Bukhari 5012 (Book 66, Hadith 34) #4793
The Manifest Victory of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) receiving a revelation from Allah that was dearer to him than the world.

Narrated Aslam: Allah's Messenger was traveling on one of his journeys, and 'Umar bin Al-Khattab was traveling along with him at night'.Umar asked him about something, but Allah's Messenger did not answer him. He asked again, but he did not answer. He asked for the third time, but he did not answer. On that, 'Umar said to himself, "May your mother lose you! You have asked Allah's Messenger three times, but he did not answer at all!" 'Umar said, "So I made my camel go fast till I was ahead of the people, and I was afraid that something might be revealed about me. After a little while I heard a call maker calling me, I said, 'I was afraid that some Qur'anic Verse might be revealed about me'. So I went to Allah's Apostle and greeted him. He said, 'Tonight there has been revealed to me a Surah which is dearer to me than that on which the sun shines (ie the world)'. Then he recited: 'Verily! We have given you (O Muhammad), a manifest victory'. " (Surat al-Fath) #(48:1).
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَانَ يَسِيرُ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ وَعُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ يَسِيرُ مَعَهُ لَيْلاً فَسَأَلَهُ عُمَرُ عَنْ شَىْءٍ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَلَمْ يُجِبْهُ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ثَكِلَتْكَ أُمُّكَ نَزَرْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ كُلَّ ذَلِكَ لاَ يُجِيبُكَ، قَالَ عُمَرُ فَحَرَّكْتُ بَعِيرِي حَتَّى كُنْتُ أَمَامَ النَّاسِ وَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ فِيَّ قُرْآنٌ فَمَا نَشِبْتُ أَنْ سَمِعْتُ صَارِخًا يَصْرُخُ ـ قَالَ ـ فَقُلْتُ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ نَزَلَ فِيَّ قُرْآنٌ ـ قَالَ ـ فَجِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَىَّ اللَّيْلَةَ سُورَةٌ لَهِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِمَّا طَلَعَتْ عَلَيْهِ الشَّمْسُ ‏"‏‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ ‏{‏إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا‏}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us about an incident that happened when the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was travelling with Umar bin Al-Khattab. Umar asked him something three times but he did not answer. Umar then became angry and made his camel go faster ahead of everyone else in fear of being reprimanded by Allah's Messenger for his outburst. However, instead of reprimanding him, Allah revealed a surah to His Messenger which was dearer to Him than anything else in this world - Surat al-Fath or 'The Manifest Victory'. This surah is a reminder for us all that if we remain patient and trust in God's plan for us then He will grant us victory over our enemies and our struggles in life. It also teaches us that even if we make mistakes or become angry at times it does not mean that God will abandon us; rather He will forgive our sins and grant us success if we turn back to Him with repentance and faith.
