A Letter to the River Nile!

It was 20 Hijri during Second Caliph of Islam Omar (RTA)

Egypt was conquered by the Muslims Led by Amor Ibnul us (RTA)

It was intense drought in Egypt Then!

The Nile has become Dry

People raised a conviction

When they throw a beautiful girl with rich clothes and ornaments on 18 day of the month

The Nile begins to flow with water!

Hearing this The Military commander in chief

Disapproved the idea saying it's a Jaheli Culture

And told people to wait and they waited for three months! But still the Nile didn't flow

So people became restless and wanted to leave the State!

In This situation He wrote a letter to the Caliph

In answer Omar wrote 'Dear Amor, What you did that is right now, I'm sending a message (to the Nile) that you would throw in the Nile! '

Amor (RTA) saw the following lines: -

من عمر أَمِير الْمُؤمنِينَ إِلَى نيل مصر أما

بعد فَإِن كنت تجرى من قبلك فَلاَ تجر وَإِن كَانَ الله الْوَاحِد القهار هُوَ الَّذِي يُجْرِيكَ فَنَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يُجْرِيَك

This message is from an Allah's slave and Amirul Muo-meninn Omar, to the river Nile of Egypt: -

'If you think you Flow yourself, then no need to flow again!

But if the Single entity and the Almighty leads you to flow then, my prayer to Him so that He again makes you to flow! '

Then Amor threw the letter in the Nile!

The next morning people of Egypt saw Allah has made the water flow at the level of 16 yards rise!

From then the water of the Nile still is flowing on

Never has it dried!
