It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Barzah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a man as a representative to an Arab tribe. The people of that tribe beat him and spoke harshly to him. When he returned and complained to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet said: "If you had gone to the people of Oman, they would neither have beaten you nor spoken harshly to you."
