Some Jews said, "Had this Verse been revealed to us, we would have taken that day as ʿId (festival)." ʿUmar 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) ʿUmar said, "I know the place where it was revealed; It was revealed while Messenger of Allah ﷺ was staying at ʿArafat."  

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 ﷺ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ  

You recite a verse which, if it had been revealed in relation to us, we would have taken that day as the day of rejoicing. Thereupon 'Umar said: I know where it was revealed and on the day when it was revealed and where Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been at that time when it was revealed. It was revealed on the day of 'Arafa (ninth of Dhu'l Hijjah) and Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been staying in 'Arafat. Sufyan said: I doubt, whether it was Friday or not (and the verse referred to) is this:" Today I have perfected your religion for you and completed My favours upon you" (v. 4).  

أَنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَالُوا لِعُمَرَ إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَ آيَةً لَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ فِينَا لاَتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنِّي لأَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ أُنْزِلَتْ وَأَىَّ يَوْمٍ أُنْزِلَتْ وَأَيْنَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَيْثُ أُنْزِلَتْ أُنْزِلَتْ بِعَرَفَةَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ أَشُكُّ كَانَ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ أَمْ لاَ يَعْنِي { الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي}  

A Jew said to ʿUmar: "If this Verse had been revealed to us, we would have taken it as a festival (Eid): 'This day, I have perfected your religion for you.'" Umar said: "I know the day when it was revealed and the night on which it was revealed: a Friday night when we were with Messenger of Allah in Arafat."  

يَهُودِيٌّ لِعُمَرَ لَوْ عَلَيْنَا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ لاَتَّخَذْنَاهُ عِيدًا { الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ } قَالَ عُمَرُ قَدْ عَلِمْتُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ فِيهِ وَاللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي أُنْزِلَتْ لَيْلَةَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِعَرَفَاتٍ  

The Jews said to ʿUmar. 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 ʿArafah, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was standing in ʿArafah, Sufyan said: I am not sure whether it was a Friday or not, i.e., ʿThis 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).  

شِهَابٍأَنَّ الْيَهُودَ قَالُوا لِعُمَرَ إِنَّكُمْ تَقْرَءُونَ آيَةً لَوْ أُنْزِلَتْ فِينَا لاتَّخَذْنَا ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ عِيدًا فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ حَيْثُ أُنْزِلَتْ وَأَيَّ يَوْمٍ أُنْزِلَتْ وَأَيْنَ رَسُولُاللهِ ﷺ حِينَ أُنْزِلَتْ؛ أُنْزِلَتْ يَوْمَ عَرَفَةَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ وَأَشُكُّ يَوْمَ جُمُعَةٍ أَوْ لَا يَعْنِي {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الْإِسْلَامَ دِينًا} [المائدة 3]  

If this verse were revealed in relation to the Jews (i e. "This day I have perfected your religion for you and have completed My favours for you and have chosen for you al-Islam as religion") we would have taken the day of rejoicing on which this verse was revealed. Thereupon 'Umar said: I know the day on which it was revealed and the hour when it was revealed and where Messenger of Allah ﷺ had been when it was revealed. It was revealed on the night of Friday and we were in 'Arafat with Messenger of Allah ﷺ at that time. (Using translation from Muslim 3017b)   

يَهُودِيٌّ لِعُمَرَ لَوْ عَلِمْنَا مَعْشَرَ الْيَهُودِ مَتَى نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ لَاتَّخَذْنَاهُ عِيدًا {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ} وَلَوْ نَعْلَمُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي نَزَلَتْ فِيهِ لَاتَّخَذْنَاهُ عِيدًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ «قَدْ عَلِمْتُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ فِيهِ وَاللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي أُنْزِلَتْ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِعَرَفَاتٍ»  

A Jew said to ʿUmar: "If this Verse had been revealed to us, we would have taken it as a festival (Eid): 'This day, I have perfected your religion for you.'" Umar said: "I know the day when it was revealed and the night on which it was revealed: a Friday night when we were with Messenger of Allah in Arafat." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3002)  

قَالَ يَهُودِيٌّ لِعُمَرَ لَوْ عَلَيْنَا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ لَاتَّخَذْنَاهُ عِيدًا {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ} [المائدة 3] قَالَ عُمَرُ «قَدْ عَلِمْتُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ فِيهِ وَاللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي نَزَلَتْ لَيْلَةُ الْجُمُعَةِ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِعَرَفَاتٍ»  

A Jew said to ʿUmar: "If this Verse had been revealed to us, we would have taken it as a festival (Eid): 'This day, I have perfected your religion for you.'" Umar said: "I know the day when it was revealed and the night on which it was revealed: a Friday night when we were with Messenger of Allah in Arafat." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3002)   

قَالَ يَهُودِيٌّ لِعُمَرَ لَوْ عَلَيْنَا نَزَلَتْ مَعْشَرَ الْيَهُودِ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ اتَّخَذْنَاهُ عِيدًا {الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمُ} [المائدة 3] الْآيَةُ قَالَ عُمَرُ «قَدْ عَلِمْتُ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي أُنْزِلَتْ فِيهِ وَاللَّيْلَةَ الَّتِي أُنْزِلَتْ لَيْلَةُ الْجُمُعَةِ وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِعَرَفَاتٍ»
