Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: On the occasion of the Battle of Hunayn, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was taking things out from the clothes of Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) and giving them to the people. A man said: O Muhammad (peace be upon him)! Act with justice. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: If I do not act with justice, then who will act with justice? If I do not act with justice, then I will be a loser and suffer loss. The narrator states: Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted: O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! Shall I strike his neck? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Allah's refuge! (In that case, non-Muslims) will say that I have my companions killed. Surely, this man and his companions will recite the Qur'an but it will not go below their throats.
