Sayyiduna Mujahid رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ states:
کَانَ عُمَرُ یَرَی الرَّاْیَ فَیَنْزِلُ بِہِ الْقُرْآنُ Translation: ‘Whenever the leader of the believers, Sayyiduna Umar Farooq-e-A’zam رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ expressed an opinion, the glorious Quran would be revealed in accordance to it.’
(Tareekh-ul-Khulafa, p. 96; Al-Sawa'iq Al-Muharriqah, p. 99)
Sayyiduna Abdullah Bin Umar رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُما, who is the son of the leader of the believers, Sayyiduna Umar Farooq-e-A’zam رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ, states: ‘Whenever the opinion of different companions was sought, and my honourable father also expressed his opinion, the glorious Quran would be revealed in accordance to his opinion.’ (Fadaail-ul-Sahabah, vol. 1, p. 415, Hadees 488; Tareekh-ul-Khulafa, p. 96)

وَ اتَّخِذُوْا مِنْ مَّقَامِ اِبْرٰهٖمَ مُصَلًّىؕ-
