Narrated Ibn `Abbas: Abu Bakr went out while `Umar bin Al-Khattab was talking to the people. Abu Bakr said, Sit down, O `Umar! But `Umar refused to sit down. So the people came to Abu Bakr and left `Umar. Abu Bakr said, To proceed, if anyone amongst you used to worship Muhammad , then Muhammad is dead, but if (anyone of) you used to worship Allah, then Allah is Alive and shall never die. Allah said:-- Muhammad is no more than an Apostle, and indeed (many) apostles have passed away before him..(till the end of the Verse )... Allah will reward to those who are thankful.
