Q
What significance does the verse ‘This day I have perfected your religion for you’ hold in Islam?
A
The Jews said to `Umar, “You (i.e. Muslims) recite a Verse, and had it been revealed to us, we would
have taken the day of its revelation as a day of celebration.” `Umar said, “I know very well when and
where it was revealed, and where Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) was when it was revealed. (It was revealed on) the
day of `Arafat (Hajj Day), and by Allah, I was at `Arafat” Sufyan, a sub-narrator said: I am in doubt
whether the Verse:– “This day I have perfected your religion for you.” was revealed on a Friday or
not.
