Q
What was Abu Bakr As-Siddiq’s approach to balancing personal livelihood and public service as a Caliph?


A

When Abu Bakr As-Siddiq was chosen Caliph, he said, “My people know that my profession was not
incapable of providing substance to my family. And as I will be busy serving the Muslim nation, my
family will eat from the National Treasury of Muslims, and I will practice the profession of serving
the Muslims.”
