One night, Umar bin Abdul Aziz were busy completing a number of tasks in the workspace palace. No warning, her son entered the room and was about to membericarakan something. 

"For business what my son came here: negarakah or keluargakah affairs?" Said Umar. 


"Affairs of the family, father," replied the boy. 


Umar suddenly turn off the light the lamp on his desk. Instantly a dark atmosphere. 


"Why are you putting out the lights?" Said his son was surprised. 


"My son, who was the father made light work is owned by the state. The oil used was also purchased with state money. While the cases that will be discussed is a family affair, "said Umar. 


Umar then asked the maid took the light from the room.


"Well, now that we turn these lights belonged to our family. Oil is also bought with our own money. Please start a conversation with my son's father." 


That's true temperament officials. Apparently, the height of glory in a variety of fields does not necessarily make Umar bin Abdul Aziz deluded. Although many praised his achievements, leader nicknamed "the fifth caliph" is still unpretentious, trustworthy, and very carefully manage the assets of the country.
