Asslamoalaikum sisters, brothers and friends we are discribing about How embraced Islam second caliph of Khulfa-e-rashidun Hazrat umar ibn al Khattab (RA)

Sa'eed ibn Al-Musayyab said: "'Umar embraced Islam after only 40 men and 10 women (had entered the fold of Islam). And when he entered the ranks of the Muslims, the religion of Islam was strengthened in the city of Mecca.

Before 'Umar embraced Islam the Prophet ? supplicated Allah saying: "O Allah! Strengthen Islam with whomever is more beloved to you from these two men: 'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab or 'Umar ibn Hisham (Abu Jehl)." And 'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab embraced Islam in the year 6.H.
The migration of 'Umar Ibn al-Khattaab from Mecca to Medina

Abd-Allah ibn Abbas said that Alee ibn Abee Taalib said: "I don't know of anyone who didn't migrate secretly except 'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab. When he was ready to migrate (from Makkah to Medina) he put on his sword, and he slung his bow over his shoulder keeping one of his arrows in his hand, and he put his staff in his waist belt. Then he made his way towards the Ka'bah while some of the Quraish were sitting nearby. Then 'Umar began bravely making tawaaf around the Ka'bah seven times. After finishing tawaaf, he courageously made prayer at the station of Ibraheem. Then he stood at their place of gathering and said: "Your faces have become ugly (to me) may Allah rub your noses in dirt. Whoever wants to cause grief for his mother and leave his children orphaned and leave his wife a widow then let him meet me (follow me) outside of this valley (the city of Mecca)." Alee ibn Abee Taalib then said: "No one followed him except a group of the very weak who he recognized as such so he continued on to his destination."

Umar ibn Al-Khattaab (May Allah be pleased with him) fought in the Battle of Badr as well as other battles

Umar ibn Al-Khattaab (May Allah be pleased with him) fought in the Battle of Badr with the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him as well as the Battle of Uhud, the Battle of The Ditch, the Battle of Khaibar, the Conquest of Mecca, the Battle of Hunain, as well as other battles and he was the most vehement of the people against disbelief. The Messenger of Allah peace be upon him wanted to send 'Umar to the people of Mecca on the Day of Hudaybiyyah but he said: "O Messenger of Allah! The Quraish know the extent of my enmity towards them so if they catch me they will surely kill me!" So he (the Messenger of Allah r) sent 'Uthmaan instead.

Umar was very knowledgeable about the religion of Islam

In an hadith narrated upon the authority of ibn 'Umar who said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him saying: 'While I was sleeping I dreamt that I was given a cup of milk so I drank from it to my fill until I noticed its wetness coming out of my nails, and then I gave the rest of it to 'Umar.' They (the people) said: "O Messenger of Allah! What is the interpretation of the dream?" He peace be upon him replied: "(It is Religious) Knowledge."

In another hadith narrated upon the authority of Qabisah ibn Jaabir who said: "By Allah! I haven't seen anyone more kind to those under his care and authority than Abu Bakr As-Siddeeq. And I haven't seen anyone more knowledgeable about the book of Allah and His religion, nor anyone more upholding of the limits imposed by Allah, nor anyone more feared and respected in the breasts of men than 'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab. And I haven't seen anyone more shy than 'Uthmaan ibn 'Affaan."

The piety and humility of Umar ibn al-Khattaab
Talha ibn 'Ubaid-Allah said: "'Umar ibn Al-Khattaab was not the first of us to accept Islam nor was he the first of us to migrate (from Makkah to Medina) but he was the most pious of us and the one who desired the hereafter the most from amongst us."

The virtues of Umar Ibn Al-Khattab
In a hadith narrated upon the authority of Ayyoob ibn Musa who said that the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him said: "Verily Allah has put the truth upon the tongue of 'Umar and upon his heart, and he is Al-Faarooq (The One Who Distinguishes Truth From Falsehood): Allah separates the truth from falsehood with him."

And in another authentic hadith narrated by Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) who said: "We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah ? when he said:

We pray to Allah almighty to give us permission and power to give true information to our beloved muslim nation according to Quran and hadith. Ameen
