    In the heart of the city lived a man named Abu Bakr, whose kindness and wisdom were admired by all.

    Abu Bakr was special because of his friendship with the Prophet Muhammad, who began sharing the message of Islam.

    As the Prophet spoke about one God, Allah, and the importance of kindness, many were unsure and hesitant.

    But Abu Bakr, upon hearing the Prophet's words, felt excitement flutter in his heart, instantly embracing Islam.

    From that day, Abu Bakr and the Prophet stood together, like two stars lighting the way for everyone.

    When the Prophet was asked to leave Mecca for his safety, Abu Bakr, brave as a lion, decided to accompany him.

    Together, they embarked on a journey filled with dangers, crossing the vast desert in secret.

    They hid in a cave to escape the enemies, trusting in Allah’s protection.

    Abu Bakr voiced his fears, but the Prophet reassured him, saying, 'Don’t worry, Abu Bakr. Allah is with us.'

    After days of traveling, they finally arrived in Medina, where the people welcomed them warmly.

    Years passed, and when Prophet Muhammad passed away, everyone was very sad.
