Correct answer
Explanation
Umar bin Khattab (RA) was titled 'Al-Farooq' (The Distinguisher) for his ability to clearly distinguish between right and wrong. 'Farooq-e-Aazam' is an honorific magnifying this title. He was the second Caliph known for his justice and administrative reforms. The other options were companions but not associated with this title.
