Upon my return, the leaders of the Quraish viz. \u2018Uqbah bin Abi Mu\u2018ait, Shaibah, Rabee\u2018ah, Abu Jahl, Abul Bakhtari and others approached me in a manner as though some great event had occurred.<\/p>\n<p>I asked them, \u201cWhat is the matter? Have you been afflicted by some calamity? Has something strange occurred?\u201d They replied, \u201cO Abu Bakr (radhiyallahu \u2018anhu)! The most shocking of events has occurred &#8211; the orphan of Abu Taalib is claiming to be a nabi. Had it not been for you (i.e. your esteemed position which we recognize and therefore regard it appropriate to consult you before taking a decision), we would have certainly not spared him. Since you have now arrived from your journey, you are sufficient in guiding us and explaining to us what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (radhiallahu \u2018anhu) gently brushed them off and enquired regarding the whereabouts of Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam). Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (radhiallahu \u2018anhu) was informed that Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) was in the home of Hazrat Khadeejah (radhiallahu \u2018anha).<\/p>\n<p><em>(To be continued insha Allah)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>(Usdul Ghaabah 3\/22- 23)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Incident regarding his accepting Islam (continued) Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddeeq (radhiallahu \u2018anhu) then says: After completing my work in Yemen, I returned to the learned sheikh to bid him farewell.
