Narrated Ibn Abi Mulaika:`Abdullah bin Az-Zubair said that a group of riders belonging to Banu Tamim came to the Prophet, Abu Bakr said (to the Prophet (ﷺ) ), "Appoint Al-Qa'qa bin Mabad bin Zurara as (their) ruler." `Umar said (to the Prophet). "No! But appoint Al-Aqra bin H`Abis." Thereupon Abu Bakr said (to `Umar). "You just wanted to oppose me." `Umar replied. "I did not want to oppose you." So both of them argued so much that their voices became louder, and then the following Divine Verses were revealed in that connection:-- "O you who believe ! Do not be forward in the presence of Allah and His Apostle..." (till the end of Verse)

حدثني ابراهيم بن موسى، حدثنا هشام بن يوسف، ان ابن جريج، اخبرهم عن ابن ابي مليكة، ان عبد الله بن الزبير، اخبرهم انه، قدم ركب من بني تميم على النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال ابو بكر امر القعقاع بن معبد بن زرارة. قال عمر بل امر الاقرع بن حابس. قال ابو بكر ما اردت الا خلافي. قال عمر ما اردت خلافك. فتماريا حتى ارتفعت اصواتهما فنزل في ذلك {يا ايها الذين امنوا لا تقدموا} حتى انقضت
