Hazrat Asim bin Qura (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that Alqamah bin Alathah became an apostate from his religion after the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So the Muslims fought against him. The narrator says: He refused to incline towards reconciliation. So Hazrat Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: Nothing will be accepted from you except a humiliating reconciliation or a severe battle. He asked: What is meant by a humiliating reconciliation? He (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: It is that you testify regarding our dead that surely they are in Paradise, and indeed your dead are in Hell. And you will pay the blood money for our slain, and we will not pay the blood money for your slain. So those people chose the humiliating reconciliation.
