"When Abu Bakr mobilized to fight them, 'Umar said: 'O 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 La ilaha illallah (there is none worthy or worship except Allah). Whoever says La ilaha illallah, his life and his property are safe from me, except for its right, and his reckoning will be with Allah?'" Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with me him, said: 'By Allah, I will surely fight those who separate prayer and Zakah, for Zakah is what is due on wealth. By Allah, if they withhold from me a small she-goat that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I will fight them for withholding it.' ('Umar said) 'By Allah, when I realized that Allah, the Most High, had opened the chest of Abu Bakr to fighting them, then I knew that it was the truth.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3093)

When Messenger of Allah ﷺ died and Abu Bakr became the caliph some Arabs renegade (reverted to disbelief) (Abu Bakr decided to declare war against them), ʿUmar, said to Abu Bakr, "How can you fight with these people although Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight the people till they say: "None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, and whoever said it then he will save his life and property from me except on trespassing the law (rights and conditions for which he will be punished justly), and his accounts will be with Allah.' " Abu Bakr said, "By Allah! I will fight those who differentiate between the prayer and the Zakat as Zakat is the compulsory right to be taken from the property (according to Allah's orders) By Allah! If they refuse to pay me even a she-kid which they used to pay at the time of Messenger of Allah ﷺ . I would fight with them for withholding it" Then ʿUmar said, "By Allah, it was nothing, but Allah opened Abu Bakr's chest towards the decision (to fight) and I came to know that his decision was right."

Why would you fight against the people, when the Messenger of Allah declared: I have been directed to fight against people so long as they do not say: There is no god but Allah, and he who professed it was granted full protection of his property and life on my behalf except for a right? His (other) affairs rest with Allah. Upon this Abu Bakr said: By Allah, I would definitely fight against him who severed prayer from Zakat, for it is the obligation upon the rich. By Allah, I would fight against them even to secure the cord (used for hobbling the feet of a camel) which they used to give to the Messenger of Allah (as zakat) but now they have withheld it. Umar b. Khattab remarked: By Allah, I found nothing but the fact that Allah had opened the heart of Abu Bakr for (perceiving the justification of) fighting (against those who refused to pay Zakat) and I fully recognized that the (stand of Abu Bakr) was right.

Abu Hurairah said When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died and Abu Bakr was made his successor after him and certain Arab clans apostatized. Umar bin Al Khattab said to Abu Bakr How can you fight with the people until they say “There is no God but Allah” so whoever says “There is no God but Allah”, he has protected his property and his person from me except for what is due from him, and his reckoning is left to allah. Abu Bak replied I swear by Allah that I will certainly fight with those who make a distinction between prayer and zakat, for zakat is what is due from property. I swear by Allah that if they were to refuse me a rope of camel (or a female kid, according to another version)which they used to pay the Messenger of Allah, I will fight with them over the refusal of it. Umar bin Al Khattab said I swear by Allah, I clearly saw Allah had made Abu Bakr feel justified in tighting and I recognized that it was right. Abu Dawud said This tradition has been transmitted by Rabah bin Zaid from Ma’mar and Al Zaubaidi from Al Zuhri has “If they were to refuse me a female kid.” The version transmitted by ‘Anbasah from Yunus on the authority of Al Zuhri has “a female kid”.

So Abu Bakr said: 'By Allah I will fight whoever differentiates between Salat and Zakat. For indeed, Zakat is the right due upon wealth. And by Allah! If they withhold even (camel) tethers which they used to give to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ I will fight them for withholding it.' So Umar bin Al-Khattab said: 'By Allah! I saw that Allah had opened Abu Bakr's chest to fighting, so I knew that it was correct.'"

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ died and some people apostatised, ‘Umar bin al-Khattab said: O 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 La ilaha illallah (There is no god but Allah), and whoever says La ilaha illallah, his wealth and his life are protected from me, and his reckoning will be with Allahʿ? Abu Bakr said: I will most certainly fight those who separate prayer and zakah, for zakah is what is due on wealth. By Allah, if they withhold from me a small she-goat that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, I will certainly fight them for withholding it. ʻUmar said: By Allah, as soon as I saw that Allah had opened Abu Bakrʿs heart to the idea of fighting I knew that he was right.

“I have been commanded to fight the people until they say La ilaha illallah, and if they say it then their blood and wealth are safe from me, except in cases dictated by sharee'ah, and their reckoning is with Allah.” When some people apostatized, ʼUmar said to Abu Bakr: Will you fight them when you heard the Messenger of Allah is say such and such? Abu Bakr said: By Allah, I will not separate prayer and zakah, and I shall certainly fight anyone who separates them. So we fought them alongside him and we realised that that was the right thing to do.

Abu Bakr said: 'The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: "I have been commanded to fight the people until they bear witness to La ilaha illallah (there is none worthy of worship except Allah) and that I am the Messenger of Allah, and they establish Salah and pay Zakah." By Allah, if they withhold from me a young goat that they used to give to the Messenger of Allah [SAW], I will fight them for it.' 'Umar said: 'By Allah, as soon as I realized how certain Abu Bakr was, I knew that it was the truth.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 3969)

"عن أبي هريرة قال: لما تُوُفَّى رسولُ الله ﷺ وكَانَ أبُو بَكْرٍ معهُ وَكفَر من كَفر من العَربِ، قَالَ عُمرُ: يا أبَا بكر: كيف نُقاتِلُ النَّاس وقَدْ قالَ رسولُ الله ﷺ : "أُمِرْتُ أنْ أُقَاتِلَ النَّاس حتَّى يَقُولوا: لَا إلَه إِلَّا الله، فمن قَالَ: لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا الله عَصَمَ مِنَّى مَالَهُ وَنَفْسَهُ إلَّا بِحَقِّهِ وَحِسَابُهُ عَلَى الله؟ ، قال أبو بَكْرٍ: والله لأُقَاتِلَنَّ من فَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الصَّلاةِ والزَّكَاةِ، فإنَّ الزكاةَ حقُّ المَالِ، وَوَالله لَوْ مَنَعُونِى عِقالًا كَانُوا يُؤَدُّونَه على رَسُولِ الله ﷺ لَقَاتَلْتُهُمْ عَلَيْه، قال عمرُ: فوالله ما هُوَ إلَّا أن رأيتُ أن الله قَد شَرَحَ صَدْرَ أَبِى بَكْرٍ للقِتَالِ فعرَفْتُ أنَّهُ الحَقُّ".

"عن ابن شهاب: أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ لأَبِى بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقِ: أَلَيْسَ قَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : أُمِرْتُ أَنْ أُقاتِلَ النَّاسَ حَتَّى يَقُولُوا لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا الله؟ فَإذَا قَالُوهَا عَصَمُوا مِنِّى دِمَاءَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ إِلَّا بِحَقِّهَا وَحِسَابُهُمْ عَلَى الله؟ فَقالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: هَذَا مِنْ حَقِّهَا، لَا تُفَرِّقُوا مَا جَمَعَ الله، وَالله لَوْ مَنَعُونِى عَناقًا مِمَّا أَعْطَوْا رَسُولَ الله ﷺ قَاتَلْتُهُمْ عَلَيْهِ".
