One of the most memorable and powerful parts of Umar ibn al-Khattab’s (RA) history is how he walked the streets of Medina at night to check on his people—disguised, without guards or status, just as a servant of the people.

There’s a famous story where he came across a woman trying to cook water and stones to keep her hungry children calm. She didn’t know she was speaking to the Caliph himself when she complained about his leadership. Umar immediately went to the storehouse himself, carried the food on his own back, and cooked for the family. When someone offered to carry the load for him.

I'll provide an in-depth exploration of three key lessons from Umar ibn Al-Khattab's life, meeting the 1000-word requirement.

## Lesson 1: Justice and Fairness

Umar ibn Al-Khattab's commitment to justice and fairness is a hallmark of his leadership. He believed that justice should be blind to social status, wealth, and power. During his caliphate, Umar implemented various reforms to ensure that justice was served.

### Establishing a System of Courts

Umar established a system of courts, appointing judges who were known for their integrity, knowledge, and fairness. He ensured that these judges were impartial and made decisions based on Islamic law. This system helped to promote justice and fairness throughout the empire.

### Holding Himself Accountable

Umar also held himself accountable to the same standards of justice and fairness. He would often walk among the people, listening to their concerns and grievances. This approachability helped to build trust and ensured that justice was served.

### Examples of Umar's Justice

One notable example of Umar's commitment to justice is the case of a woman who complained about her treatment by her governor. Umar listened to her complaint, investigated the matter, and ultimately removed the governor from his position. This demonstrates Umar's willingness to hold those in power accountable for their actions.

## Lesson 2: Humility and Accountability

Umar's humility and accountability are traits that set him apart as a leader. Despite his significant power and influence, Umar remained humble and accessible to the people.

### Walking Among the People

Umar would often walk among the people, listening to their concerns and grievances. This approachability helped to build trust and ensured that he was aware of the needs and challenges faced by his people.

### Accountability to the People

Umar believed that leaders should serve the people, not the other way around. He was accountable to the people and would often seek their counsel and feedback. This approach helped to promote a sense of community and shared responsibility.

### Examples of Umar's Humility

One notable example of Umar's humility is his willingness to listen to criticism. When a woman criticized him for his decision on the dowry, Umar listened to her concerns and ultimately changed his decision. This demonstrates Umar's willingness to listen and adapt.

## Lesson 3: Strong Leadership and Vision

1. True Leadership Means AccountabiliTy

2. Justice Above All

Lesson: Justice is non-negotiable, even if it means going against those close to you.

Example: Umar didn’t show favoritism, even toward his own family. Once, his son violated a law, and Umar ordered the same punishment for him as would be given to any other citizen.

He also held governors strictly accountable — firing even close companions if they abused power orunjustly.

What you can learn: Stand for what’s right, even when it’s hard. Real integrity means holding yourself and others to the same standard, even if it’s uncomfortable.

3. Simplicity and Detachment from Power

Lesson: A powerful person doesn’t need to show off their power.

Example: Even as Caliph, Umar lived modestly. He wore simple clothes, ate basic food, and would sleep under a tree during travels — no palaces or titles.

When Jerusalem was conquered, he entered the city in worn clothes, walking beside his servant while they took turns riding the camel. The Christian bishop who welcomed him was astonished by his humility.
