Sayyiduna Ka'b bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Banu Salamah! Who is your chief?" They said: "Our chief is Jad bin Qais, but we attribute miserliness to him." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What disease can be greater than miserliness? Therefore, your chief is Ja'd bin Qattat bin Amr bin Jamuh."
