Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Grant guidance to the tribe of Thaqif.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Sayyiduna Tufail (may Allah be pleased with him) and his companions came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Tufail (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Indeed, the Banu Daws have rebelled. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Guide the Banu Daws and bring them to me.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin presented a she-camel as a gift to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him six she-camels in return, yet he still remained displeased. When this news reached the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he praised and glorified Allah, and then said: "Such-and-such a man presented me a she-camel as a gift, even though it was my own she-camel. I recognized it just as I recognize my own family. It had slipped from my hands on the day of the battle of Zughaba. Nevertheless, I gave him six she-camels in return, but he still remained displeased. Now I have decided that I will not accept any gift from anyone except a Qurayshi, Ansari, Thaqafi, or Dosi."
