(the wife of the Prophet) Messenger of Allah ﷺ died while Abu Bakr was at a place called As-Sunah (Al-'Aliya) 'Umar stood up and said, "By Allah! Messenger of Allah ﷺ is not dead!" 'Umar (later on) said, "By Allah! Nothing occurred to my mind except that." He said, "Verily! Allah will resurrect him and he will cut the hands and legs of some men." Then Abu Bakr came and uncovered the face of Messenger of Allah ﷺ, kissed him and said, "Let my mother and father be sacrificed for you, (O Messenger of Allah ﷺ), you are good in life and in death. By Allah in Whose Hands my life is, Allah will never make you taste death twice." Then he went out and said, "O oath-taker! Don't be hasty." When Abu Bakr spoke, 'Umar sat down. Abu Bakr praised and glorified Allah and said, No doubt! Whoever worshipped Muhammad, then Muhammad is dead, but whoever worshipped Allah, then Allah is Alive and shall never die." Then he recited Allah's Statement.:-- "(O Muhammad) Verily you will die, and they also will die." (39.30) He also recited:-- "Muhammad is no more than an Apostle; and indeed many Apostles have passed away, before him, If he dies Or is killed, will you then Turn back on your heels? And he who turns back On his heels, not the least Harm will he do to Allah And Allah will give reward to those Who are grateful." (3.144) The people wept loudly, and the Ansar were assembled with Sad bin 'Ubada in the shed of Bani Saida. They said (to the emigrants). "There should be one 'Amir from us and one from you." Then Abu Bakr, Umar bin Al-Khattab and Abu 'baida bin Al-Jarrah went to them. 'Umar wanted to speak but Abu Bakr stopped him. 'Umar later on used to say, "By Allah, I intended only to say something that appealed to me and I was afraid that Abu Bakr would not speak so well. Then Abu Bakr spoke and his speech was very eloquent. He said in his statement, "We are the rulers and you (Ansars) are the ministers (i.e. advisers)," Hubab bin Al-Mundhir said, "No, by Allah we won't accept this. But there must be a ruler from us and a ruler from you." Abu Bakr said, "No, we will be the rulers and you will be the ministers, for they (i.e. Quarish) are the best family amongst the 'Arabs and of best origin. So you should elect either 'Umar or Abu 'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah as your ruler." 'Umar said (to Abu Bakr), "No but we elect you, for you are our chief and the best amongst us and the most beloved of all of us to Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So 'Umar took Abu Bakr's hand and gave the pledge of allegiance and the people too gave the pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr. Someone said, "You have killed Sad bin Ubada." 'Umar said, "Allah has killed him."

When Abu Talib was on his death bed, Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him and found with him, Abu Jahl and ʿAbdullah bin Abi Umaiya bin Al-Mughira. Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O uncle! Say: None has the right to be worshipped except Allah, a sentence with which I will defend you before Allah." On that Abu Jahl and ʿAbdullah bin Abi Umaiya said to Abu Talib, "Will you now leave the religion of ʿAbdul Muttalib?" Messenger of Allah ﷺ kept on inviting him to say that sentence while the other two kept on repeating their sentence before him till Abu Talib said as the last thing he said to them, "I am on the religion of ʿAbdul Muttalib," and refused to say: None has the right to be worshipped except Allah. On that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "By Allah, I will keep on asking Allah's forgiveness for you unless I am forbidden (by Allah) to do so." So Allah revealed:-- 'It is not fitting for the Prophet ﷺ and those who believe that they should invoke (Allah) for forgiveness for pagans.' (9.113) And then Allah revealed especially about Abu Talib:--'Verily! You (O, Muhammad) guide not whom you like, but Allah guides whom He will.' (28.56)

لَمَّا حَضَرَتْ أَبَا طَالِبٍ الْوَفَاةُ جَاءَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَوَجَدَ عِنْدَهِ أَبَا جَهْلٍ وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ فَقَالَ أَىْ عَمِّ قُلْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ كَلِمَةً أُحَاجُّ لَكَ بِهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَهْلٍ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ أَتَرْغَبُ عَنْ مِلَّةِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعْرِضُهَا عَلَيْهِ وَيُعِيدَانِهِ بِتِلْكَ الْمَقَالَةِ حَتَّى قَالَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ آخِرَ مَا كَلَّمَهُمْ عَلَى مِلَّةِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ وَأَبَى أَنْ يَقُولُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاللَّهِ لأَسْتَغْفِرَنَّ لَكَ مَا لَمْ أُنْهَ عَنْكَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {مَا كَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا أَنْ يَسْتَغْفِرُوا لِلْمُشْرِكِينَ} وَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فِي أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ {إِنَّكَ لاَ تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ وَلَكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَهْدِي مَنْ يَشَاءُ} قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ {أُولِي الْقُوَّةِ} لاَ يَرْفَعُهَا الْعُصْبَةُ مِنَ الرِّجَالِ {لَتَنُوءُ} لَتُثْقِلُ {فَارِغًا} إِلاَّ مِنْ ذِكْرِ مُوسَى {الْفَرِحِينَ} الْمَرِحِينَ {قُصِّيهِ} اتَّبِعِي أَثَرَهُ وَقَدْ يَكُونُ أَنْ يَقُصَّ الْكَلاَمَ {نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ} {عَنْ جُنُبٍ} عَنْ بُعْدٍ عَنْ جَنَابَةٍ وَاحِدٌ وَعَنِ اجْتِنَابٍ أَيْضًا يَبْطِشُ وَيَبْطُشُ {يَأْتَمِرُونَ} يَتَشَاوَرُونَ الْعُدْوَانُ وَالْعَدَاءُ وَالتَّعَدِّي وَاحِدٌ {آنَسَ} أَبْصَرَ الْجِذْوَةُ قِطْعَةٌ غَلِيظَةٌ مِنَ الْخَشَبِ لَيْسَ فِيهَا لَهَبٌ وَالشِّهَابُ فِيهِ لَهَبٌ وَالْحَيَّاتُ أَجْنَاسٌ الْجَانُّ وَالأَفَاعِي وَالأَسَاوِدُ {رِدْءًا} مُعِينًا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ {يُصَدِّقُنِي} وَقَالَ غَيْرُهُ {سَنَشُدُّ} سَنُعِينُكَ كُلَّمَا عَزَّزْتَ شَيْئًا فَقَدْ جَعَلْتَ لَهُ عَضُدًا مَقْبُوحِينَ مُهْلَكِينَ {وَصَّلْنَا} بَيَّنَّاهُ وَأَتْمَمْنَاهُ {يُجْبَى} يُجْلَبُ {بَطِرَتْ} أَشِرَتْ {فِي أُمِّهَا رَسُولاً} أُمُّ الْقُرَى مَكَّةُ وَمَا حَوْلَهَا {تُكِنُّ} تُخْفِي أَكْنَنْتُ الشَّىْءَ أَخْفَيْتُهُ وَكَنَنْتُهُ أَخْفَيْتُهُ وَأَظْهَرْتُهُ {وَيْكَأَنَّ اللَّهَ} مِثْلُ أَلَمْ تَرَ أَنَّ اللَّهَ {يَبْسُطُ الرِّزْقَ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ وَيَقْدِرُ} يُوَسِّعُ عَلَيْهِ وَيُضَيِّقُ عَلَيْهِ

"On the day of the Conquest of Makkah, the Messenger of Allah [SAW] granted amnesty to the people, except four men and two women. He said: 'Kill them, even if you find them clinging to the covers of Ka'bah.' (They were) 'Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl, 'Abdullah bin Khatal, Miqyas bin Subabah and 'Abdullah bin Sa'd bin Abi As-Sarh. 'Abdullah bin Khatl was caught while he was clinging to the covers of Ka'bah. Sa'eed bin Huraith and 'Ammar bin Yasir both rushed toward him, but Sa'eed, who was the younger of the two, got there before 'Ammar, and he killed him. Miqyas bin Subabah was caught by the people in the marketplace, and they killed him. 'Ikrimah traveled by sea, and he was caught in a storm. The crew of the ship said: 'Turn sincerely toward Allah, for your (false) gods cannot help you at all in this situation.' 'Ikrimah said: 'By Allah, if nothing came to save me at sea except sincerity toward Allah then nothing else will save me on land. O Allah, I promise You that if You save me from this predicament I will go to Muhammad [SAW] and put my hand in his, and I am sure that I will find him generous and forgiving.' So he came, and accepted Islam. 'Abdullah (bin Sa'd) bin Abi Sarh hid in the house of 'Uthman bin 'Affan, and when the Messenger of Allah [SAW] called the people to give their Oath of Allegiance, he brought him, and made him stand before the Prophet [SAW]. He ('Uthman) said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Accept the allegiance of 'Abdullah.' He raised his head and looked at him three times, refusing his allegiance each time, then he accepted his allegiance after three times. Then he turned to his Companions and said: 'Was there not any sensible man among you who would get up when he saw me refusing to give him my hand and kill him?' They said: 'We did not know, O Messenger of Allah, what was in your heart. Why did you not gesture to us with your eyes?' He said: 'It is not befitting for a Prophet that his eyes be deceitful.'"

[Machine] I went out with Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Rabee'ah. Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman sent Ibrahim ibn Abdul Rahman to ibn Saad. When we were in Al-Arj, a son of Saad and Saad himself, who accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in his journey, came to us. Ibrahim asked me, "What did your father tell you?" Ibn Saad replied, "My father told me that the Messenger of Allah came to them with Abu Bakr. Abu Bakr had a nursling daughter with them. The Messenger of Allah intended to shorten the journey to Madinah, so Saad said, 'This is a she-camel from Al-Ghair which has two disorders, but there are two men from the Muslims who are called Al-Muhanaan (the humiliated). If you want, we can replace them with you.' The Prophet ﷺ accepted and said, 'Yes, replace them with us.' Saad said, 'Then we set out until one of them said to his companion, 'This is the Yamani.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called them and presented Islam to them, and they embraced Islam. Then he asked them their names, and they said, 'We are Al-Muhanaan.' He said, 'No, you are Al-Mukraman (honored).' He ordered them to go ahead to Madinah. We continued until we reached Dhaher Qubaa, where Bani Amr Ibn Awf met us. The Prophet ﷺ asked, 'Where is Abu Umamah As'ad ibn Zurarah?' Saad ibn Khaythamah replied, 'He was hurt before me, O Messenger of Allah. Shouldn't I inform him about you?' Then he went until he reached the palm grove and found the water filled. The Prophet ﷺ looked at Abu Bakr and said, 'O Abu Bakr, this is the place where I saw myself descending into a grassy area like the grassy area of Bani Mudlij.'

[Machine] Al-Hadith (the narrator of the Hadith) reported that 'Ubadah said to Abu Hurayrah, "O Abu Hurayrah, you were not with us when we pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. We pledged allegiance to him to hear and obey, whether it is easy or difficult, to spend in ease and hardship, to command what is good and forbid what is evil, to speak about Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, without fearing the blame of anyone, and to support the Prophet ﷺ when he came to Madinah, withholding from him what we withhold from ourselves, our wives, and children, and in return, Paradise is promised to us. This is the pledge of allegiance that we pledged to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Whoever breaks it, breaks it against himself, and whoever fulfills what he pledged to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ fulfills it to Allah and his Prophet ﷺ."

Then Muawiyah wrote to 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, informing him that 'Ubadah ibn As-Samit has disrupted the people and their belongings in Ash-Sham (Syria). He then said to 'Uthman, "Either return 'Ubadah to you, or I will take action between him and Ash-Sham." So 'Uthman wrote to 'Ubadah, instructing him to return to Madinah. He sent 'Ubadah until he reached Madinah. He entered the house of 'Uthman, and there was no one in the house except a man from the Sahabah who had reached the people. 'Uthman was sitting in a corner of the house. He turned towards 'Ubadah and said, "O 'Ubadah ibn As-Samit, what is the matter between us and you?" 'Ubadah stood among the people and said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, Abu Al-Qasim Muhammad ﷺ, saying, 'After me there will be leaders who will order you to do what you know, but you will deny it, and they will forbid you from what you know, but you will acknowledge it. Therefore, do not obey those who disobey Allah, and do not dispute about your Lord."

"On the day of the Conquest of Makkah, the Messenger of Allah [SAW] granted amnesty to the people, except four men and two women. He said: 'Kill them, even if you find them clinging to the covers of Ka'bah.' (They were) 'Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl, 'Abdullah bin Khatal, Miqyas bin Subabah and 'Abdullah bin Sa'd bin Abi As-Sarh. 'Abdullah bin Khatl was caught while he was clinging to the covers of Ka'bah. Sa'eed bin Huraith and 'Ammar bin Yasir both rushed toward him, but Sa'eed, who was the younger of the two, got there before 'Ammar, and he killed him. Miqyas bin Subabah was caught by the people in the marketplace, and they killed him. 'Ikrimah traveled by sea, and he was caught in a storm. The crew of the ship said: 'Turn sincerely toward Allah, for your (false) gods cannot help you at all in this situation.' 'Ikrimah said: 'By Allah, if nothing came to save me at sea except sincerity toward Allah then nothing else will save me on land. O Allah, I promise You that if You save me from this predicament I will go to Muhammad [SAW] and put my hand in his, and I am sure that I will find him generous and forgiving.' So he came, and accepted Islam. 'Abdullah (bin Sa'd) bin Abi Sarh hid in the house of 'Uthman bin 'Affan, and when the Messenger of Allah [SAW] called the people to give their Oath of Allegiance, he brought him, and made him stand before the Prophet [SAW]. He ('Uthman) said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Accept the allegiance of 'Abdullah.' He raised his head and looked at him three times, refusing his allegiance each time, then he accepted his allegiance after three times. Then he turned to his Companions and said: 'Was there not any sensible man among you who would get up when he saw me refusing to give him my hand and kill him?' They said: 'We did not know, O Messenger of Allah, what was in your heart. Why did you not gesture to us with your eyes?' He said: 'It is not befitting for a Prophet that his eyes be deceitful.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on a journey with his companions when they became extremely thirsty. Two men from his companions, whom I think were Ali and Zubayr or others, went ahead and found a woman with two water containers on a camel. They said to her, "Answer the call of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." She asked, "Who is the Messenger of Allah, this Jew?" They replied, "He is the one you are addressing, and he is truly the Messenger of Allah." They brought her to him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded that the water be poured into a vessel made from the two containers. He then asked for the water to be returned to the containers, and ordered the loosening of the knots on the containers. They were opened, and the people were instructed to fill their containers and drink. That day, no vessel or container was left un-filled. Imran said, "It seemed as if it wasn't filled except to be filled." The Prophet ﷺ ordered his garment to be spread out, and his companions brought their provisions until his garment was filled. He told the woman to go, saying, "We did not take anything from your water, but it was Allah who gave us to drink." She went and informed her family, saying, "I have met the most knowledgeable person or indeed he is the Messenger of Allah." The people of that village embraced Islam, as reported in Sahihain from the hadith of Awf ibn Abi Jamilah. The last incident is that the Prophet ﷺ gave a container of water to the one who had an impurity. He said to him, "Go and pour it over yourself while standing and see what happens to its water." This was narrated by Abu Abdullah Al-Haafiz, Ahmad ibn Ja'far Al-Qatti'i, Abdullah ibn Ahmad ibn Hanbal, and Yahya ibn Sa'id from Awf, mentioning it in a similar manner.

سَرَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ فَأَصَابَهُ عَطَشٌ شَدِيدٌ فَأَقْبَلَ رَجُلَانِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ أَحْسَبُهُ عَلِيًّا وَالزُّبَيْرَ أَوْ غَيْرَهُمَا قَالَ إِنَّكُمَا سَتَجِدَانِ بِمَكَانِ كَذَا وَكَذَا امْرَأَةً مَعَهَا بَعِيرٌ عَلَيْهِ مَزَادَتَانِ فَأْتِيَانِي بِهَا فَأَتَيَا الْمَرْأَةَ فَوَجَدَاهَا قَدْ رَكِبَتْ بَيْنَ مَزَادَتَيْنِ عَلَى الْبَعِيرِ فَقَالَا لَهَا أَجِيبِي رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ وَمَنْ رَسُولُ اللهِ هَذَا الصَّابِئُ؟ قَالَا هُوَ الَّذِي تَعْنِينَ وَهُوَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَقًّا فَجَاءَا بِهَا فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجُعِلَ فِي إِنَاءٍ مِنْ مَزَادَتَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ فِيهِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ ثُمَّ أَعَادَ الْمَاءَ فِي الْمَزَادَتَيْنِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِعَزْلَاءِ الْمَزَادَتَيْنِ فَفُتِحَتْ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ النَّاسَ فَمَلَئُوا آنِيَتَهِمْ وَأَسْقِيَتَهُمْ فَلَمْ يَدَعُوا يَوْمَئِذٍ إِنَاءً وَلَا سِقَاءً إِلَّا مَلَئُوهُ قَالَ عِمْرَانُ فَكَانَ يُخَيَّلُ إِلِيَّ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَزْدَدْ إِلَّا امْتِلَاءً قَالَ فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِثَوْبِهَا فَبُسِطَتْ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ أَصْحَابَهُ فَجَاءُوا مِنْ زَادِهِمْ حَتَّى مَلَئُوا لَهَا ثَوْبَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهَا اذْهَبِي فَإِنَّا لَمْ نَأْخُذْ مِنْ مَائِكِ شَيْئًا وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ سَقَانَا قَالَ فَجَاءَتْ أَهْلَهَا فَأَخْبَرَتْهُمْ فَقَالَتْ جِئْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَسْحَرِ النَّاسِ أَوْ إِنَّهُ لِرَسُولُ اللهِ حَقًّا قَالَ فَجَاءَ أَهْلُ ذَلِكَ الْحِوَاءِ حَتَّى أَسْلَمَوا كُلُّهُمْ مُخَرَّجٌ فِي الصَّحِيحَيْنِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَوْفِ بْنِ أَبِي جَمِيلَةَ وَفِيهِ فَكَانَ آخِرُ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَعْطَى الَّذِي أَصَابَتْهُ الْجَنَابَةُ إِنَاءً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ فَأَفْرِغْهُ عَلَيْكَ وَهِيَ قَائِمَةٌ تَنْظُرُ مَا يُفْعَلُ بِمَائِهَا 127 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْقَطِيعِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عَوْفٍ فَذَكَرَ بِمَعْنَاهُ بِزِيَادَتِهِ

On the day when Mecca was conquered, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave protection to the People except four men and two women and he named them. Ibn AbuSarh was one of them. He then narrated the tradition. He said: Ibn AbuSarh hid himself with Uthman ibn Affan. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ called the people to take the oath of allegiance, he brought him and made him stand before the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: Messenger of Allah, receive the oath of allegiance from him. He raised his head and looked at him thrice, denying him every time. After the third time he received his oath. He then turned to his Companions and said: Is not there any intelligent man among you who would stand to this (man) when he saw me desisting from receiving the oath of allegiance, and kill him? They replied: We do not know, Messenger of Allah, what lies in your heart; did you not give us an hint with your eye? He said: It is not proper for a Prophet to have a treacherous eye. Abu Dawud said: 'Abd Allah (b. Abi Sarh) was the foster brother of 'Uthman, and Walid b. 'Uqbah was his brother by mother, and 'Uthman inflicted on him hadd punishment when he drank wine. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2683)

(the wife of the Prophet) Messenger of Allah ﷺ died while Abu Bakr was at a place called As-Sunah (Al-'Aliya) 'Umar stood up and said, "By Allah! Messenger of Allah ﷺ is not dead!" 'Umar (later on) said, "By Allah! Nothing occurred to my mind except that." He said, "Verily! Allah will resurrect him and he will cut the hands and legs of some men." Then Abu Bakr came and uncovered the face of Messenger of Allah ﷺ, kissed him and said, "Let my mother and father be sacrificed for you, (O Messenger of Allah ﷺ), you are good in life and in death. By Allah in Whose Hands my life is, Allah will never make you taste death twice." Then he went out and said, "O oath-taker! Don't be hasty." When Abu Bakr spoke, 'Umar sat down. Abu Bakr praised and glorified Allah and said, No doubt! Whoever worshipped Muhammad, then Muhammad is dead, but whoever worshipped Allah, then Allah is Alive and shall never die." Then he recited Allah's Statement.:-- "(O Muhammad) Verily you will die, and they also will die." (39.30) He also recited:-- "Muhammad is no more than an Apostle; and indeed many Apostles have passed away, before him, If he dies Or is killed, will you then Turn back on your heels? And he who turns back On his heels, not the least Harm will he do to Allah And Allah will give reward to those Who are grateful." (3.144) The people wept loudly, and the Ansar were assembled with Sad bin 'Ubada in the shed of Bani Saida. They said (to the emigrants). "There should be one 'Amir from us and one from you." Then Abu Bakr, Umar bin Al-Khattab and Abu 'baida bin Al-Jarrah went to them. 'Umar wanted to speak but Abu Bakr stopped him. 'Umar later on used to say, "By Allah, I intended only to say something that appealed to me and I was afraid that Abu Bakr would not speak so well. Then Abu Bakr spoke and his speech was very eloquent. He said in his statement, "We are the rulers and you (Ansars) are the ministers (i.e. advisers)," Hubab bin Al-Mundhir said, "No, by Allah we won't accept this. But there must be a ruler from us and a ruler from you." Abu Bakr said, "No, we will be the rulers and you will be the ministers, for they (i.e. Quarish) are the best family amongst the 'Arabs and of best origin. So you should elect either 'Umar or Abu 'Ubaida bin Al-Jarrah as your ruler." 'Umar said (to Abu Bakr), "No but we elect you, for you are our chief and the best amongst us and the most beloved of all of us to Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So 'Umar took Abu Bakr's hand and gave the pledge of allegiance and the people too gave the pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr. Someone said, "You have killed Sad bin Ubada." 'Umar said, "Allah has killed him." (Using translation from Bukhārī 3667)

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , passed away, and Abu Bakr was appointed as his successor. Those Arabs who had disbelieved continued to do so. Umar ibn Al-Khattab said to Abu Bakr, "How can you fight the people when the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, 'I have been commanded to fight the people until they say, "There is no god but Allah," and whoever says, "There is no god but Allah," his wealth and his life will be protected except for what is justified and his reckoning is with Allah?'" Abu Bakr replied, "By Allah, I will fight whoever separates prayer and zakat, for indeed, zakat is the right of wealth. By Allah, if they withheld from me a small cord that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , I would fight them for withholding it." Umar ibn Al-Khattab said, "By Allah, this is only because I saw Allah had expanded the chest of Abu Bakr for fighting, so I knew it was the truth." Qutaybah narrated to us, Abu Sa'eed ibn Abi 'Amr told us, Abu Al-Abbas Al-Asamm narrated to us, Rabee'ah said, "Ash-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said, 'This is like the two hadiths before it, which were general regarding the polytheists. However, what is intended in them, and Allah knows best, is the polytheistic people of the idols. There was no one from the people of the Book, apart from the Jews in Al-Madinah, who were allies of the Ansar. The Ansar were the first to gather as Muslims without any enmity toward the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ . They bid farewell to the Jews, without showing hostility in words or actions. Until the Battle of Badr, they did not speak openly against the Prophet or incite against him. So the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , killed some of them. In the Hijaz, I only knew of the Jews and a few Christians in Najran who were adversaries. The Magians were in Hajar, Barbary lands, and Fars, far removed from the Hijaz. Apart from them, the polytheistic people of the idols were numerous.'"

"On the day of the Conquest of Makkah, the Messenger of Allah [SAW] granted amnesty to the people, except four men and two women. He said: 'Kill them, even if you find them clinging to the covers of Ka'bah.' (They were) 'Ikrimah bin Abi Jahl, 'Abdullah bin Khatal, Miqyas bin Subabah and 'Abdullah bin Sa'd bin Abi As-Sarh. 'Abdullah bin Khatl was caught while he was clinging to the covers of Ka'bah. Sa'eed bin Huraith and 'Ammar bin Yasir both rushed toward him, but Sa'eed, who was the younger of the two, got there before 'Ammar, and he killed him. Miqyas bin Subabah was caught by the people in the marketplace, and they killed him. 'Ikrimah traveled by sea, and he was caught in a storm. The crew of the ship said: 'Turn sincerely toward Allah, for your (false) gods cannot help you at all in this situation.' 'Ikrimah said: 'By Allah, if nothing came to save me at sea except sincerity toward Allah then nothing else will save me on land. O Allah, I promise You that if You save me from this predicament I will go to Muhammad [SAW] and put my hand in his, and I am sure that I will find him generous and forgiving.' So he came, and accepted Islam. 'Abdullah (bin Sa'd) bin Abi Sarh hid in the house of 'Uthman bin 'Affan, and when the Messenger of Allah [SAW] called the people to give their Oath of Allegiance, he brought him, and made him stand before the Prophet [SAW]. He ('Uthman) said: 'O Messenger of Allah! Accept the allegiance of 'Abdullah.' He raised his head and looked at him three times, refusing his allegiance each time, then he accepted his allegiance after three times. Then he turned to his Companions and said: 'Was there not any sensible man among you who would get up when he saw me refusing to give him my hand and kill him?' They said: 'We did not know, O Messenger of Allah, what was in your heart. Why did you not gesture to us with your eyes?' He said: 'It is not befitting for a Prophet that his eyes be deceitful.'"
