mander’, and Umar said, ‘Make Al-Aqra’a Bin Habis the commander’. Abu Bakr said, ‘You do not intend except to oppose me’, and Umar said, ‘I do not intend to oppose you’. He (the narrator) said, ‘They quarrelled until their voices were raised. It was Revealed regarding that, O you those who believe! Do not precede in front of Allah and His Rasool, [49: 1] – until it terminated’’. (Non-Shia source)

And Al-Tirmizi extracted it saying, ‘Al-Aqra’a Bin Habis arrived to Rasool-Allah-saww, so Abu Bakr said, ‘O Rasool-Allah-saww! Utilise him to be (in charge) over his people’. Umar said, ‘Do not utilise him, O Rasool-Allah-azwj’. They both spoke in the presence of the Prophet-saww until their voices were raised. Abu Bakr said to Umar, ‘You do not want except to oppose me’. He said, ‘I do not want to oppose you’. He (the narrator) said, ‘This Verse was Revealed: O you those who believe! Do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet, [49: 2]. After that, whenever Umar spoke in the presence of the Prophet-saww, his speech was not heard until he made it to be understood, and Ibn Al Zubeyr did not mention his grandfather, meaning Abu Bakr’’.
