It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the wife of Walid bin Uqbah came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Walid beats me." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: "Go and tell him that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has given me protection." After a short while, she came again and said: "Now he has started beating me even more." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took a corner of his garment and gave it to her and said: "Go and tell him that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has given me protection." But after a little while, she returned and said: "O Messenger of Allah! He has started beating me even more." Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) raised both his hands and said: "O Allah! Take understanding from Walid; he has disobeyed me twice."
