Got milk?

"O you who believe! Do your duty to Allah and fear Him, seek the means of approach to Him." [al-Maa'idah, (5):35]

That is, draw close to Allah by obedience to Him and by worship of Him.

The Milk-Seller

While Omar Ibnul-Khattab was walking at night to check on the people, he heard a mother ordering her daughter to dilute the milk.

The daughter replied, “Do you not know that the Emir of the believers has forbidden that?”

The mother said, “Omar Ibnul-Khattab does not see us now.”

She replied, “If Omar does not see us, his Lord sees us.”

When Omar heard these words, he put a mark on the house and went to his sons. He told them, “There is a young lady in that house; which of you will marry her? By Allah, I will not let her marry a stranger. If you do not obey me, I will marry her myself.”

His son Aasem married her, and in this way the son of the Emir of the believers married a milk-seller for her fear of Allah.

Omar Ibn-Abdul-Azeez, the well-known and just ruler descended from this woman.

Justice prevailed by the blessings of the words of a woman who feared The Allah.
