Hazrat Umar Farooq (RA)
The glory of Hazrat Umar Farooq (RA) in the light of the Prophet's (PBUH) hadiths
In this universe, no matter how virtuous and pious someone is, he cannot reach the glory of a companion who spent only a few moments in the blessed company of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). They are the best people. There is a hadith in the Holy Qur'an, My companions are like the stars, you will be guided by whomever you follow. The glory of these great personalities is that the Lord declares that He is pleased with them. I have said: Allah is pleased with them and they are pleased with Allah and He has prepared for them gardens under which there are rivers, always stay in them, this is a great achievement.
