Assalamu 'Alaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu Does anyone know for certain the wissal of the khalifa Sayyidina Hazrat Umar Farooq(Radi Allahu anhu) was it the 28th of Dhul Hajah or was it the first week in Muharram ? Searching around i have come across these two different dates .. Sometimes the web can have too much info, as you dont know whose putting what on their websites ?

Verily, Allah does not look towards your bodies nor towards your appearances.

'Umar's Death In 23 A.H., when Hadrat Umar (Radi Allahu Ta'ala anhu) returned to Madinah from Hajj, he raised his hands and prayed, "O Allah! I am advanced in years, my bones are weary, my powers are declining, and the people for whom I am responsible have spread far and wide. Summon me back to Thyself, my Lord!" Some time later, when Hadrat 'Umar (Radi Allahu Ta'ala anhu) went to the mosque to lead a prayer, a Magian named Abu Lulu Feroze, who had a grudge against Hadrat 'Umar (Radi Allahu Ta'ala anhu) on a personal matter, attacked him with a dagger and stabbed him several times. Umar reeled and fell to the ground. When he learned that the assassin was a Magian, he said, "Thank Allah he is not a Muslim." 'Umar died in the first week of Muharram, 24 A.H., and was buried by the side of the Most Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu Ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam). www.islam786.org/thefourcaliphs.htm#37515778
