Umar And His Pagan View Of Prophethood – Sheikh Yasser al-Habib

In the Name of Allah, the All-Beneficent, the All-Merciful.
May Allah bless Muhammad and his Family and damn their enemies.

Sheikh Yasser al-Habib explains Umar’s true view of Prophethood, that he understands it to be a type of kingship. The Prophet (peace be upon him and his family), of course, rejected this type of leadership, but rather called people to believe in Allah.
