A--- Mtume wa Allah ﷺ anasema: "Sijui nitakufa lini, basi fuateni hao wawili watakaonifuata." Akaashiria Abu Bakr na 'Umar (Allah awe radhi nao). (At-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Ahmad na Al-Hakim)

A--- Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon him) says: "I do not know when will I be dead, so follow the two who come after me.” He pointed to Abu Bakr and 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with them). (AtTirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Ahmed and AI-Hakim)

Imesimuliwa kutoka kwa Hudhaifah (Allah awe radhi naye): "... 'Umar alisema: 'Sikumaanisha hilo, bali niliuliza kuhusu lile fitina ambalo litaenea kama mawimbi ya bahari.' Mimi (Hudhaifah) nikasema: 'Ewe kiongozi wa waumini! Huna haja ya kuogopa, kwa kuwa kuna mlango uliofungwa kati yako na hiyo fitina.' 'Umar akauliza, 'Je, mlango utavunjwa au utafunguliwa?' Nikajibu, 'Utavunjwa.' 'Umar akasema: 'Basi hautafungwa tena kamwe.' (Sahih Bukhari)

Narrated Hudhaifah (May Allah be pleased with him): "... 'Umar said: 'I did not mean that but I asked about that affliction which will spread like the waves of the sea.’ I (Hudhaifah) said: 'O leader of the faithful believers! You need not be afraid of it as there is a closed door between you and it.’ 'Umar asked, 'Will the door be broken or opened?' I replied, 'It will be broken.’ 'Umar said: 'Then it will never be closed again.’ (Sahih Bukhari)

Ummah yote ilikubaliana kwa pamoja juu ya haki yake ya kuwa khalifa baada ya Abu Bakr (Allah awaridhie wote)

The whole Ummah unanimously agreed on his right to be the successor of Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with them)
