A
person once brought some milk for Hadhrat Umar (Radhiyallaho anho). When he
took it, he noted its queer taste, and asked the person as to how he had come
in possession of the milk. He replied:
"The
camels given in Sadaqah were grazing in the desert, and the attendants gave me
this milk out of what they got from them."
Upon
this, Hadhrat Umar (Radhiyallaho anho) put his hand in his throat and vomited
all that he had taken.
These
God-fearing people not only totally abstained from 'haraam' food, but were most
anxious to avoid any doubtful morsel finding its way inside them. They could
not dare taking anything that was 'haraam', which is so usual these days.
