{{citazione|E disse il loro profeta: "Il segno della sovranità sarà che verrà con l'Arca. Conterrà una ''presenza di pace'' da parte del vostro Signore, nonché quel che resta di ciò che lasciarono la famiglia di Mosè e la famiglia di Aronne. Saranno gli angeli a portarla."|[http://www.sufi.it/corano/2.htm Sura 2/248]}}

According to [[Sunni]] traditions, when Muhammad was persecuted in [[Mecca]] and the time came for him to emigrate to Madinah ([[Medina]]), he took temporary refuge with his companion Abu Bakr in the cave of Thawr. Seeking to be hidden from the Makkans who were looking for him, it was at Thawr where God brought down His ''sakina'' over them, protecting them from their enemies. According to [[Sufism]], it was at Thawr that [[Abu Bakr]] was blessed with divine secrets whose transmission from him to the latter generations formed the [[Naqshbandi]] path of Sufism. It was this experience that led the second [[Caliph]] [[Umar]] to say that all the good Umar did cannot stand as an equivalent to Abu Bakr's sole virtue of companionship with Muhammad at the Thawr cave.
