When Hadhrat Umar Ibn Khattaab (Radhiyallahu anhu), the Second Khalifah, went to Syria where he met the Commander of the army, Hadhrat Abu Ubaidah Ibnul Jarraah (Radhiyallahu anhu). He (Hadhrat Umar) saw no provisions in his home besides his sword, shield and saddlebags. Hadhrat Umar said to him: “You should acquire
some other provisions as well.” Hadhrat Abu Ubaidah replied: “O Ameerul Mu’mineen! This is sufficient to convey
us to our graves.”
