Tashah-hud before Abu Bakr, and said, “Amma Ba’du (then after) Allah has chosen for his Apostle
what is with Him (Paradise) rather than what is with you (the world). This is that Book (Quran) with

I used to offer drinks prepared from infused dates to Abu Talha Al-Ansari, Abu ‘Ubada bin Al Jar –
rah and Ubai bin Ka’b. Then a person came to them and said, “All alcoholic drinks have been prohib –
ited.” Abii Talha then said, “O Anas! Get up and break all these jars.” So I got up and took a mortar
belonging to us, and hit the jars with its lower part till they broke.

Narrated Anas bin Malik:
That he heard ‘Umar’s second speech he delivered when he sat on the pulpit on the day following
the death of the Prophet ‘Umar recited the Tashahhud while Abu Bakr was silent. ‘Umar said, “I wish
that Allah’s Apostle had outlived all of us, i.e., had been the last (to die). But if Muhammad is dead,
Allah nevertheless has kept the light amongst you from which you can receive the same guidance as
Allah guided Muhammad with that. And Abu Bakr is the companion of Allah’s Apostle He is the
second of the two in the cave. He is the most entitled person among the Muslims to manage your af –
fairs. Therefore get up and swear allegiance to him.” Some people had already taken the oath of alle –
giance to him in the shed of Bani Sa’ida but the oath of allegiance taken by the public was taken at
the pulpit. I heard ‘Umar saying to Abu Bakr on that day. “Please ascend the pulpit,” and kept on ur –
ging him till he ascended the pulpit whereupon, all the people swore allegiance to him.
