It is narrated from Sayyiduna Haml bin Nabighah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I was between the houses of my two wives, one of them struck the other with a stick, as a result of which that woman died and her unborn child was also lost.

It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Waraqah bint Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Noble Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to visit her every Friday. One day I said: O Messenger of Allah! Will you permit me on the day of Badr so that I may also go with you and tend to the sick and treat the wounded? Perhaps Allah Almighty will grant me martyrdom as well? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Remain in your house, Allah Almighty will grant you martyrdom.

Sayyida Umm Waraqah (may Allah be pleased with her) had freed a male and a female slave after her death. When this period seemed long to both of them, they covered her with a sheet until she passed away and both of them fled. When Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) was informed that Umm Waraqah had been killed by her male and female slaves and they had fled, he stood among the people and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to visit Sayyida Umm Waraqah (may Allah be pleased with her). Then he said: Come, let us visit this martyred woman. Such-and-such female slave and such-and-such male slave covered her and killed her and then fled themselves. No one should give them shelter; rather, whoever finds them should bring them to me. So both of them were brought and they were crucified. These were the first two individuals in Islam who were crucified.

It is narrated from Abu Firas that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) delivered a sermon in which he mentioned a lengthy hadith and said: Beware! I do not send government officials to you so that they may strike your bodies or seize your wealth; rather, I send them to you so that they may teach you religion and the Sunnah. Whoever does anything else along with this, let him inform me. By the One in Whose hand is my soul! I will surely, surely exact retribution from him. Sayyiduna Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) stood up and said: O Commander of the Faithful, tell us, if a man is appointed over the people and punishes them to teach them discipline, will you also exact retribution from him? He said: Yes, absolutely. By the One in Whose hand is Umar’s soul! I will surely exact retribution from him. I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) exact retribution from his own self.

Narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent Sayyiduna Abu Juhm (may Allah be pleased with him) to collect charity. A man argued with him regarding giving charity, and in response, Abu Juhm (may Allah be pleased with him) struck him and wounded his head. He came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and demanded retribution (qisas). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Take this much (as compensation). But he was not satisfied. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Come, you will get this much. But still, he was not satisfied. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Come, we will give you this much. This time, he was satisfied. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to them: Shall I address the people and inform them of your satisfaction? They said: Yes, that is fine. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed the people and said: These individuals from the tribe of Lays came to me, they demanded retribution, I offered them this much wealth and asked them: Are you now satisfied? They said: No. The Muhajirun wanted to say something to them, but when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered them to stop, they stopped. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called them and gave them more, and said: Are you now satisfied? They said: Yes. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, I am going to address the people and inform them about your satisfaction. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed (the people) and said: Are you now satisfied? They said: Yes.

Abu Safar says: A man from the Quraysh broke the tooth of an Ansari man. The Ansari went to seek justice from Sayyiduna Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him). The Ansari said: He has broken my tooth. Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Surely, we will satisfy you. When the Ansari insisted on taking retribution, Sayyiduna Amir Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Your matter is in the hands of your companion. Sayyiduna Abu Darda (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting nearby; he said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever among the Muslims forgives a wound inflicted upon his body, Allah Almighty raises his rank and erases his sin. The Ansari said: Did you hear this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: Yes! My ears heard it and my heart remembered it. So the Ansari forgave the Qurayshi.
