Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I reached the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), he was in a (leather) red tent and about forty men were sitting with him. In another narration: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gathered us, while we were forty individuals. Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I was the last to arrive. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Victories will be granted to you, you will be helped, and you will acquire spoils of war. Whoever reaches such a time should fear Allah, enjoin good, forbid evil, and maintain ties of kinship. Whoever deliberately lies about me, let him prepare his abode in Hell. The person who helps a people in their falsehood is like a camel that has been thrown into a well and then pulled out by its tail.
