Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If Allah were to call me and the son of Maryam to account for the shortcomings of these two (fingers) (the Prophet, peace be upon him, pointed to his thumb and the finger next to it), and He were to punish us, He would not be doing us any injustice."
