Staying in Towns After Conquest

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) would stay in a town for three days after conquering it.

Narrated Abu Talha: Whenever the Prophet conquered some people, he would stay in their town for three days.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ ذَكَرَ لَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ كَانَ إِذَا ظَهَرَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ أَقَامَ بِالْعَرْصَةِ ثَلاَثَ لَيَالٍ‏.‏ تَابَعَهُ مُعَاذٌ وَعَبْدُ الأَعْلَى حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ عَنْ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Show respect and kindness to those who have wronged you.

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was known to stay in towns for three days after conquering them. This was done as a sign of respect and kindness towards the people of the town. He wanted to show that he had come with peace and not with violence or destruction. This is an important lesson for us today; even when we are victorious over our enemies, we should still treat them with kindness and respect. We should never take revenge or act out of anger but instead be forgiving and merciful towards those who have wronged us.
