The reign of Umar Farooq __!!
### During the era of Amirul Momineen Umar Farooq RA, when the plague spread, the principle of quarantine was followed in the current terms and it was followed so strictly that the epidemic could not leave Syria and Iraq.

### Meanwhile, Hazrat Umar had left for Syria to fix the administration of conquered countries with his own hands. On reaching Tabuk, an epidemic was reported. Instead of going forward under the same principle, they went back. Twenty-five thousand Muslims succumbed to the plague, including companions like Hazrat Abu Ubaidah, Jalil-ul-Qadr. Was there anyone more truthful and faithful than these men? And was their faith power low that the plague killed them?
### Those who say that shaking hands is Sunnah, they are right, but they are wrong to say that it is Sunnah to shake hands despite the fear of harm, rather it is Sunnah not to shake hands here. came, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) turned him away from his place, did not actually swear allegiance, did not shake hands and did not face him.
##### (Sahih Muslim: 2231)
## As if it is Sunnah not to shake hands on such an occasion.
### Those who say, with faith there is no need for caution, they are wrong.
### The Messenger of Allah said, “Run away from leprosy as you run away from a tiger.”
##### (Bukhari: 5707)
### As if not facing the virus on such an occasion, avoiding it is a sunnah.
### Those who say, we have trust in Allah and there is no need for caution, they are wrong.
### The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Tie a camel's rope and then trust."
##### (Tirmidhi: 2517)
## As if taking means is trust, without means is not trust.
### Because Hazrat Umar did not go to plague-stricken Syria, he took precautions, so no person today can have more faith, piety and trust than Hazrat Umar, even if he says shoot me or hang me. give me.
