"umar ibn al_khaTTaab (R+) takes the hand of abuw bakr (R+) and gives him allegiance to become the first 'amiyr and khaliyfah of Islaam.
Sahih al-Bukhari 3467
He said, "The Ansar gathered around Sa'd ibn 'Ubada in the Saqifa of the Banu Sa'ida. They said, 'There should be an amir from us and an amir from you.' Abu Bakr, 'Umar ibn al-Khattab, and Abu 'Ubayda ibn al-Jarrah went to them. 'Umar started to speak and Abu Bakr made him be quiet. 'Umar used to say, 'By Allah, I only meant by that some words which I had prepared which I liked. I was afraid that Abu Bakr would not be eloquent. Then Abu Bakr spoke and he spoke in the most eloquent fashion. He said in his words, "We are the amirs and you are the wazirs."' Hubab ibn al-Mundhir said, 'No, by Allah, we will not do it! An amir from us and an amir from you.'
Abu Bakr said, 'No, but we are the amirs and you are the wazirs, for they (i.e. Quraysh) are the noblest house of the Arabs and the best in lineage.
So give allegiance to 'Umar or Abu 'Ubadya ibn al-Jarrah.' So 'Umar said, 'Rather we will give allegiance to you! You are our master and the best of us and the one of us most beloved to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and
'Umar took his hand and gave him allegiance, and the people gave him allegiance.
Someone said, 'You have killed Sa'd.' 'Umar replied, 'Allah has killed him.'"
to be continued inshaa allaah
