[Machine] Umar used to ask me along with the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So, Abdullah bin Awf asked him, "Do you ask him (the Prophet)?" Umar said, "I ask them (the companions) about 'When comes the help of Allah and the victory' [Surah An-Nasr]. I said, 'It was revealed in the Prophet's lifetime and it was recited until its end at 'He who turns to Allah in repentance,' [Surah At-Tawbah].' Umar said, 'You have spoken the truth.'"

كَانَ عُمَرُ يَسْأَلُنِي مَعَ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ تَسْأَلُهُ؟ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُ مَنْ حَيْثُ تَعْلَمُ فَسَأَلَهُمْ عَنْ {إِذَا جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللهِ وَالْفَتْحُ} فَقُلْتُ إِنَّمَا هُوَ أَجَلُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَرَأَ السُّورَةَ إِلَى آخِرِهَا إِلَى {كَانَ تَوَّابًا} فَقَالَ عُمَرُ صَدَقْتَ

“Umar used to ask me questions in front of the Companions of the Prophet. So Abdur-Rahman bin Awf said to him: ‘Why do you ask him, while we have children like him?’” He said: “Umar said to him: ‘It is because of what you know (about him).’ So he asked him about this Ayah: ‘When there comes the help of Allah and the Conquest.’ I said: “It is only regarding the (end of the) life span of the Messenger of Allah, informing him of it.” Then he recited the Surat until its end. So Umar said to him: “By Allah! I know not about it, but what you know.”

[Machine] Umar used to ask me with the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , so Abdur-Rahman ibn Awf said to him, "Do you ask him, while we have children like him?" So Umar said, "From what I know, he said," So he asked them about when the victory of Allah and the conquest will come. Some of them said, "Allah has commanded us to praise Him and seek His forgiveness." And some of them said, "We do not know." So Umar said to me, "O Ibn Abbas, what do you say?" So I said, "He is the most knowledgeable of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." And he recited the Surah until its end, "Indeed, He is the Accepting of repentance." [Al-Nasr: 3] So Umar said, "By Allah, I do not know except what you know."
