Prophet companions
Hazrat Umar was born in which Hijri year?
Explanation and memory cue
Hazrat Umar (Umar ibn Al-Khattab) was born in 584 AD, which is before the Hijri calendar started (622 AD). Therefore, it is incorrect to say he was born on a specific Hijri date. Options B and C are incorrect as they reference Hijri dates after his birth. Option A gives his birth year in AD, which is correct, but the question asks 'on which hijri?', implying a Hijri date, so the best answer is D (None of these).
