Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْجُمَحِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ كَادَ الْخَيِّرَانِ أَنْ يَهْلِكَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ لَمَّا قَدِمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفْدُ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ أَشَارَ أَحَدُهُمَا بِالْأَقْرَعِ بْنِ حَابِسٍ الْحَنْظَلِيِّ أَخِي بَنِي مُجَاشِعٍ وَأَشَارَ الْآخَرُ بِغَيْرِهِ قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لِعُمَرَ إِنَّمَا أَرَدْتَ خِلَافِي فَقَالَ عُمَرُ مَا أَرَدْتُ خِلَافَكَ فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَنَزَلَتْ { يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ عَظِيمٌ } قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ قَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ فَكَانَ عُمَرُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ذَلِكَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِذَا حَدَّثَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَدَّثَهُ كَأَخِي السِّرَارِ لَمْ يَسْمَعْهُ حَتَّى يَسْتَفْهِمَهُ.
English Translation
Waki' told us, Nafi' ibn 'Umar al-Jumahi told us, from Ibn Abi Mulaykah, who said: The two good men, Abu Bakr and 'Umar, nearly perished. When the delegation of Banu Tamim came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, one of them suggested al-Aqra' ibn Habis al-Hanzali, brother of Banu Mujashi', and the other suggested someone else. Abu Bakr said to 'Umar: "You only wanted to oppose me." 'Umar said: "I did not want to oppose you." Their voices rose in the presence of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, so there was revealed: {O you who believe, do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet} up to His saying {...great}. Ibn Abi Mulaykah said: Ibn al-Zubayr said: After that, 'Umar - and he did not mention this about his father, meaning Abu Bakr - when he spoke to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, he would speak to him like one who whispers a secret, so that he would not be heard until he was asked to repeat it.
