DO WE MEASURE UP TO THEM?

During the regime of Umar bn Alkhattaab, three men came to him holding a young man and they said;

O the leader of the believers, we need you to claim our right from this man because he has killed our father.

Umar bn Alkhattaab said to the young man; why did you kill him?

The man said; I am a herdsman. One of my donkeys ate from a tree in their father's farm & he stoned it to death so I picked the same stone & stoned him and he died.

Umar bn Alkhattaab said; then I will do justice on you.

The man said; spare me three days because my father just passed away & left a bag of money for me & my younger brother so if you kill me, the inheritance will be wasted & my younger brother would live miserably after me.

Umar bn Alkhattaab asked; Who will stand for you?

The man looked at the faces of the audience & said; This man [Aboo dharr]

Umar bn alkhattaab said; O Aboo dharr, would you stand for this man?
Aboo dharr said; Yes, O leader of the believers.
Umar replied; you don't know him & if he runs away (refuses to come back), I will punish you in his stead. 
Aboo dharr replied; I will stand for him. 
And the man left.

The first day passed by, same with the second day & on the third day, people started asking of his whereabouts, for justice not to be passed on Aboo dharr instead.

When it was few minutes after magrib [evening] prayer, the man came back panting & he had indeed been stressed out. 
He stood before the leader of the believers, Umar bn Alkhattaab & said; 
I have handled both the inheritance & my brother to our uncles so I am here for justice.

Umar was astonished and said; What brought you back when you had the chance to run??

The man replied; I was scared of people saying fulfillment of promise has gone away from human beings..

Umar then asked Aboo dharr why he stood for him. 
Aboo dharr said; I was afraid of people saying good deeds have gone away from humans..

The sons of the deceased were touched with these words and said; we have pardoned him. 
Umar asked; Why? 
They replied; We are scared of people saying; pardon has gone away from human beings..

Brethren, Where are we in this type of indelible act? As for me, I translated and shared this with you for people not to say; calling to good deed has gone away..

May Allah make good deed easy for us.
