That he heard Ibn ‘Abbas reciting: “No doubt! They fold up their breasts.” (11.5) and asked him
about its explanation. He said, “Some people used to hide themselves while answering the call of
nature in an open space lest they be exposed to the sky, and also when they had sexual relation with
their wives in an open space lest they be exposed to the sky, so the above revelation was sent down
regarding them.”

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar:
While we were with Allah’s Apostle he said, “Tell me of a tree which resembles a Muslim man. Its
leaves do not fall and it does not, and does not, and does not, and it gives its fruits every now and
then.” It came to my mind that such a tree must be the date palm, but seeing Abu Bakr and ‘Umar
saying nothing, I disliked to speak. So when they did not say anything, Allah’s Apostle said, “It is the
date-palm tree.” When we got up (from that place), I said to ‘Umar, “O my father! By Allah, it came to
my mind that it must be the date palm tree.” ‘Umar said, “What prevented you from speaking” I
replied, “I did not see you speaking, so I misliked to speak or say anything.” Umar then said, “If you
had said it, it would have been dearer to me than so-and-so.”

“Do you see what He has spent since He created the Heavens and the Earth? Nevertheless, what is in
His Hand is not decreased, and His Throne was over the water; and in His Hand there is the balance
(of justice) whereby He raises and lowers (people).”
