Narrated Uthman ibn Abul As: When the deputation of Thaqif came to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , he made them stay in the mosque, so that it might soften their hearts. They stipulated to him that they would not be called to participate in Jihad, to pay zakat and to offer prayer. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: You may have the concession that you will not be called to participate in jihad and pay zakat, but there is no good in a religion which has no bowing (i. e. prayer).
