Khalif
should take care of the peo-
ple under his rule just as a father
takes care of his children. ‘Umar [r]
tried his very best to do this. At night
he often went out into the city of
Madinah to help any of his people
who were in need.
One night, ‘Umar [r] was walking
down a street in the city of Madinah
when he heard some children cry-
ing. The crying came from a small
house. When ‘Umar [r] looked in, he
saw a lady sitting with her children
around her. The lady looked very
sad and the children seemed to be
very hungry.
‘Umar [r] noticed that there was a
pot on the fire. He thought that there
must be some food in the pot and
that soon the lady would give it to
the children and then they would
stop crying. ‘Umar [r] watched and
waited while the pot kept boiling
