Huzoore-Anwaraa enquired about their respective duties, the progress of their work and imparted valuable guidance on various matters. Throughout the session, Huzooraa engaged with the amila members, offering specific advice and setting targets for their departments. To a member who often works late, Huzooraa smiled and enquired about his work schedule, to which he replied that he had been managing his time to get more done during the day.

At that time, the Holy Prophetsa had seventy or eighty companions, and even Hazrat Alira was with him, but from all of these companions, the Holy Prophetsa chose none other than Hazrat Abu Bakrra. What is the secret in this? The fact is that a Prophet sees through the eye of God Almighty, and his insight comes from God Almighty.
