Hadhrat Abu Bakr ( Radhiyallaho anho ) and The Fear of Allah :
According to our belief , Abu Bakr ( Radhiyallaho anho ) is the most exalted person after the Prophet ( may peace be on all of them ). The Prophet ( Sallaho alaihe wasallam ) himself conveyed to him the glad tidings of his being the head of a group of persons in Paradise. The Prophrt ( Sallaho alaihe wasallam ) once remarked :
" Abu Bakr's name shall be called out from all the gates of Paradise, and he will be the first of my followers to enter it."
With all these virtues and privileges. Abu Bakr ( Radhiyallaho anho ) used to say ;
" I wish I were a tree that would be cut and done away with."
Sometimes he would say :
" I wish I were a blade of grass, whose life ended with the grazing by some beast."
He also said :" I wish I were a hair on the body of a Mo'min."
Once he went to a garden, where he sae a bird singing. He sighed deeply and said.
" O , bird ! How lucky you are! You eat, drink and fly under the shade of the trees, and you fear no reckoning of the Day of ludgement. I wish I were just like you."
