A True Incident:
It is narrated that Rabee’ah bin Umayyah bin Khalf came to Hadhrat Aboo Bakr As-Siddeeq 4« and said: “O Khaleefah of the Messanger of Allah, I saw a dream last night. I saw myself in a lush and green land. Then I suddenly saw myself in a barren land. At this stage I saw you clasping your neck with both your hands”. Hadhrat Aboo Bakr As-Siddeeq (RA) said: “If what you are saying is true then I am afraid you will forsake the Deen of Islam. As for me all my affairs will remain protected and my hands will not be contaminated through worldly pursuits”.
The narrator says that during the Khilaafat of Hadhrat Umar (RA) Rabee’ah left Medinah to live in Rome. There he embraced Christianity in the presence of the then king and died as one.
