6 AH :Dhu al-Qi'dah: Treaty of Hudaybiyyah[3].

Also, Umar publicly and loudly questioned Muhammad's authority at the Treaty of Hudaybiya. After been given an answer and not being content with it, he went to Abu Bakr and again questioned Muhammad's authority.

Prima facie these terms favored the Quraish and Umar felt very bitter about them. He waited on the Holy Prophet and submitted:

"O Prophet of God! Are you not the Messenger of God?" "Certainly I am", said the Holy Prophet. "Are not our enemies idolatrous polytheists?" asked Umar. "Undoubtedly they are", rejoined the Holy Prophet. "Why should then we disgrace our religion?" added Umar. The Holy Prophet said, "I am the Messenger of God, and I do not act in contravention of His commandments."

This silenced Umar, but he felt these terms to be humiliating to the Muslims. He saw Abu Bakr, and wanted him to persuade the Holy Prophet to revise the terms. Abu Bakr said:

"The Holy Prophet knows things better than we do. What the Holy Prophet has done is in the interests of the Muslims. Have faith in God. Do not be critical and hold fast to the stirrup of the Holy Prophet."

Umar regarded the treaty of Hudaibiya as humiliating to the Muslims. He saw Abu Bakr and wanted him to persuade the Holy Prophet to withdraw from the pact. Abu Bakr said, "The Holy Prophet knows things more than we do. What the Holy Prophet has done is in the interests of the Muslims. Do not be critical. Hold fast to the stirrup of the Holy Prophet

In Medina, there were occasions when Umar had to remind Muhammad that in him (in Umar), he (Muhammad) had to reckon with a man who had great reserves of moral courage. If he disagreed with him (with Muhammad), he was not at all queasy about expressing his disagreement. Thus, among all the companions, he (Umar) alone had the moral courage to show his resentment and insolence to him (to Muhammad) at Hudaybiyya when he (Muhammad) signed a treaty of peace with the Quraysh.
