It is narrated from Sayyiduna Suwaid bin Hanzalah that one day we set out with the intention of presenting ourselves before the Prophet (peace be upon him), and Wa’il bin Hujr was also with us. On the way, an enemy of his captured him. The people became hesitant to swear an oath, so I swore that he is my brother. Upon this, that person left him. When we presented ourselves before the Prophet (peace be upon him), I mentioned this incident as well. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Among them, you were the most virtuous and truthful; you spoke the truth, for every Muslim is the brother of another Muslim.
