What is the secret behind the popularity of this phrase and who said it?
Omar bin Al-Khattab's attention was drawn to the fact that Abu Bakr went out to the outskirts of Medina after Fajr prayer, entered a small house for hours, and then he goes to his own house. And Omar knew everything that Abu Bakr was doing except for the secret of this house. Days have passed and the Caliph of the Believers is still visiting this house. Omar still did not know what Abu Bakr was doing inside, so Omar decided to enter the house after Abu Bakr left. So that he can see with his eyes what is inside, and know what Abu Bakr does after the Fajr prayer. When Omar entered this little house, he found an old woman who could not move and had no one, and she is also blind. Ibn Al-Khattab was surprised by what he saw. He wanted to know what is the secret of Abu Bakr's relationship with this blind old woman, so he asked her: "What does this man do here in your house?" (Meaning Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq) The old woman answered: "Wa Allahi, I do not know, my son. This man comes every morning and cleans and sweeps the house for me. Then he prepares food for me, and he leaves without talking to me." When Abu Bakr died, Omar completed the care of the blind old woman. She said to him: "Did your friend die?" He said: "How did you know?" She said: "You brought me dates, and you did not remove the seeds from them." Omar bin Al-Khattab crouched on his knees and his eyes filled with tears and said his famous phrase: โ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ฉ๐ก๐ฌ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ญ๐ข๐ซ๐๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ, ๐ ๐๐๐ฎ ๐๐๐ค๐ซ.โ Should we cry for Abu Bakr, or cry for Omar, or cry today about the feelings and morals that have collapsed and deteriorated. ๐๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ธ๐ข๐ด ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ฏ, ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ต ๐ธ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ข๐ฏ ๐ต๐ณ๐บ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ช๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ด๐ฏ๐ถ๐ญ ๐ฌ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ญ๐ถ๐ฒ (๐ฆ๐น๐ค๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ค๐ฉ๐ข๐ณ๐ข๐ค๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ด) ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ๐ด๐ฆ๐ญ๐ท๐ฆ๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ง๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ญ๐บ. What a lesson to each of us & to those tyrants that rule over Muslim lands without a care for their people or Allah SWT... Our Duas will be answered & the Believers Day will come, Insha'Allah! ๐ข๐ข๐ข

Light of Dawn
I wake with the light of the dawn whispering with joy in my heart and with praise on my lips. In stillness and twilight i stand before you bowing, prostating i call Allahu (swt).
My eyes see your beauty in the dawn's golden hues. My ears hear the thunder as it gloriies you. The rhythm of my heart beats the sound of your name. My breaths rise and fall with the tide of your praise. My soul knew and loved you before i was born and without your mercy is lost and fortorn.
Wherever i may wonder down the pathways of life, my cry to you Allah (swt), is "guide me to ligfht" through all fear and helpness, to you do i turn for your breath of healing and peacedo i yearn. For all that i have , my Allah (swt) all that i am is from you, is for you and to you will return. Inshallah
