حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، أَخْبَرَنَا نَافِعُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ 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 التَّمِيمِيِّ الْحَنْظَلِيِّ أَخِي بَنِي مُجَاشِعٍ وَأَشَارَ الْآخَرُ بِغَيْرِهِ ، فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ لِعُمَرَ : إِنَّمَا أَرَدْتَ خِلَافِي ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : مَا أَرَدْتُ خِلَافَكَ ، فَارْتَفَعَتْ أَصْوَاتُهُمَا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَنَزَلَتْ : يَأَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لا تَرْفَعُوا أَصْوَاتَكُمْ فَوْقَ صَوْتِ النَّبِيِّ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ عَظِيمٌ سورة الحجرات آية 2- 3 " ، قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ : قَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ : فَكَانَ عُمَرُ بَعْدُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ ذَلِكَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ يَعْنِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِذَا حَدَّثَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِحَدِيثٍ حَدَّثَهُ كَأَخِي السِّرَارِ لَمْ يُسْمِعْهُ حَتَّى يَسْتَفْهِمَهُ .
Narrated Ibn Abi Mulaika: Once the two righteous men, i.e., Abu Bakr and `Umar were on the verge of destruction (and that was because): When the delegate of Bani Tamim came to the Prophet, one of them (either Abu Bakr or `Umar) recommended Al-Aqra' bin H`Abis at-Tamimi Al-Hanzali, the brother of Bani Majashi (to be appointed as their chief), while the other recommended somebody else. Abu Bakr said to `Umar, "You intended only to oppose me." `Umar said, "I did not intend to oppose you!" Then their voices grew louder in front of the Prophet whereupon there was revealed: 'O you who believe! Do not raise your voices above the voice of the Prophet..a great reward.' (49.2-3) Ibn Az-Zubair said, 'Thence forward when `Umar talked to the Prophet, he would talk like one who whispered a secret and would even fail to make the Prophet hear him, in which case the Prophet would ask him (to repeat his words).

Hadith Commentary:
The relevance of this hadith to the chapter is that it mentions disputing, because Abu Bakr and Umar (radi Allahu anhuma) were both disputing in the matter of succession, that is, regarding who should be appointed as the ruler. This was a matter of knowledge.

Hadith Commentary:
The chapter heading established by Imam Bukhari rahimahullah consists of several components. One of these is “arguing without cause.” Thus, the dispute and difference between Abu Bakr radi Allahu anhu and Umar radi Allahu anhu mentioned in the hadith occurred in the presence of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, when Umar al-Faruq radi Allahu anhu suggested appointing Aqra’ ibn Habis as leader, and Abu Bakr al-Siddiq radi Allahu anhu said that Qa’qa’ ibn Ma’bad should be made leader.
During this, the voices of these two noble Companions were raised, so the Angel of Revelation came to the service of the Prophet, and verses were revealed from Allah, stating that in the presence of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, no one is permitted to offer advice on their own initiative, nor is it correct to speak in a raised voice before him sallallahu alayhi wa sallam.
In any case, this hadith corresponds to its chapter heading in that it mentions a dispute, because Abu Bakr al-Siddiq radi Allahu anhu and Umar al-Faruq radi Allahu anhu were arguing over whether Aqra’ ibn Habis or Qa’qa’ ibn Ma’bad ibn Zurara should be appointed as leader.
