Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that Tufail bin Amr Dosi came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "The tribe of Daws is disobedient to Allah and they have refused to accept the call to truth. O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), pray against them." But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) turned his face towards the Qiblah and raised both hands and began to supplicate. The people thought that now the tribe of Daws would be destroyed (as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, was about to pray against them). But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed: "O Allah! Grant guidance to the tribe of Daws, and bring them to us as obedient ones. O Allah! Grant guidance to the tribe of Daws, and bring them to us as obedient ones."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Haydah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had some people from our tribe arrested and imprisoned on the charge of accusation. Then a man from our tribe came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) while he was delivering a sermon. He said: O Muhammad! Why have you imprisoned my neighbors? The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent with him. He said again: People say that you forbid evil, while you are spreading evil. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: What is he saying? Sayyiduna Muawiyah says: I did not let the matter between the two become clear, fearing that perhaps the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) might hear his words and curse my tribe, and then my tribe would never attain such-and-such. But the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kept engaging with him until he understood him. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Did these people really say this accusatory thing? By Allah! If I do the act which I have forbidden, then its burden will be upon me. Release his neighbors.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ja’dah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) saw a fat man, so he pointed towards his belly with his hand and said: If this fatness had been in another part of your body instead of your belly, it would have been better for you. Ja’dah says: A man was brought to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and it was told to him that this man had intended to kill you. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said to him: Do not be afraid, do not be frightened. If you had planned to kill me, then Allah Almighty did not give you power over me.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ja'dah that I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and a man who was relating his dream to him, and the narrator described his obesity. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to him: If this had been in something other than this, it would have been better for you.

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he participated in a military expedition towards Najd in the company of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) returned from the expedition, Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) also returned with the people. On the way back, during the journey, the caravan stopped in a valley where there were many thorny trees. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) dismounted at one place, and the people scattered here and there in search of shade under the thorny trees. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) also stayed in the shade under a tree and hung his sword on the tree. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We went to our places and fell asleep. Meanwhile, we heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) calling us. When we came near him, we saw that a Bedouin was sitting with him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I was asleep, and he came and drew my sword. When I woke up, the sword was in his hand, brandished. He said, "Who will save you from me?" I replied, "Allah will save me from your evil." He asked again, "Who will save you from me?" I said, "Allah, the Exalted." He then put the sword back in its sheath and sat down. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not say anything to him, even though he had done such a great act.

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was more modest than a veiled virgin girl, and when something displeased him, we would recognize it from his blessed face.
