481. This verse was revealed in honour of Suhaib bin Sinaan (on whom be peace) who while migrating from Makkah fell into the hands of the polytheists, but gained his freedom to reach Madina after disclosing to them the whereabouts of his entire possessions.

How can anyone else obtain this lofty position?
