Abu Bakr (raa) was the first male to accept Islam.
Two main characteristics that enabled this to happen were:
1. His indication to do good.
2. His friendship with Muhammad (S.A.W)
As-Siddiq (The Truthful)
He was given this title after the night journey of the prophet (S.A.W). When the Mushrikeen of Quraish were mocking the prophet (S.A.W), and claiming that this journey was false.
They said to Abu Bakr (raa) "Do you know what your friend has said, he claims he went from Makkah to Jerusalemand then to the heavens in one night".
Abu Bakr (raa) said"If he (S.A.W) said so, then it is true". This is the way he was given the title As-Siddiq.
The Trails he suffered from the Polytheists
Abu Bakr (raa) suffered from persecution of the polytheists as Allah's messenger (S.A.W) suffered. He underwent serious physical abuse. On one occation he was beaten up so severly taht it was difficult to distinguish his note on his face.
In the name of Allah the most Gracious and Merciful
