✧ "When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was taken ill and I was with him in a group of Muslims, Bilal was called for prayer. He said, 'Choose someone to lead the people in prayer.' So I went out and found Umar among the people, and Abu Bakr was absent. I said to Umar, 'Stand up and lead the people in prayer.' He stood up and when he said the takbeer (the opening phrase of prayer), the Messenger of Allah ﷺ heard his voice. Umar was a loud speaker. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Where is Abu Bakr? May Allah not blame him or the Muslims for that.' He sent for Abu Bakr and after Umar had finished that prayer, Abu Bakr led the people in prayer. Abdullah ibn Zam'a said, 'Umar said to me, "What did you do to me, O Ibn Zam'a? By Allah, when you told me to lead the people in prayer, I did not think that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had commanded it. If it were not for that, I would not have led the people in prayer." I said, 'By Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not command me. But when I did not see Abu Bakr, I thought that you were the most entitled to lead the people in prayer.'"
