Sayyidah Zainab bint Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates from her mother that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You people bring your disputes to me; it is possible that one of you may be more eloquent in presenting his argument than the other. I am also a human being, so in such a situation, I will decide according to what I hear. So, if I give a decision in favor of someone regarding his brother's right, then he should not take it, because I have cut a piece of Hell for him." In another narration, these words are mentioned: "Now it is up to him whether he takes it or leaves it."
