Be careful with your actions and words as they can have consequences. Respect those in power and hold yourself accountable for your own actions.

This hadith is about the Prophet's burning and cutting down of the palm trees belonging to a tribe called Banu Nadir. A poet commented on this event, saying that it was easy for those in power to do such things in a frightening manner. This hadith teaches us that we should be careful with our actions and words as they can have consequences. We should also remember that those in power have more responsibility than others when it comes to their actions, as they are held to higher standards than others.
