It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was distributing the spoils of the Battle of Hunayn at Ji'ranah. People gathered around the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was relating about a prophet whom his people had beaten, and he was wiping the blood from his face and kept saying: "O Lord! Forgive my people, for they do not know." Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: That scene is still before my eyes, that while narrating this incident, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was wiping his own forehead.
