The two sheikhs

Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq and Omar bin Al-Khattab, the two noble companions and the two caliphs who presented models of the Rashidun Caliphate, made it difficult for those who followed them among the caliphs. He, Dean of Arab Literature Dr. Taha Hussein, narrates their biographies, scrutinizing the events of their eras and correcting what had been previously written about them, whether it was excessive praise or underestimation. Dr. Taha Hussein observed that some historians who preceded him in documenting these two noble companions went to the extent of veneration bordering on sanctification, while some historians diminished their worth to the point of denying their achievements or criticizing their wisdom and justice.
