Sahih Muslim 892e (Book 8, Hadith 20) #9207
The Prophet's Tolerance and Kindness

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) allowed two girls to sing in his house and also watched a sport with the Banu Arfada tribe.

'A'isha reported: The Messenger of Allah came (to my apartment) while there were two girls with me singing the song of the Battle of Bu'ath. He lay down on the bed and turned away his face. Then came Abu Bakr and he scolded me and said: Oh! this musical instrument of the devil in the house of the Messenger of Allah ! The Messenger of Allah turned towards him and said: Leave them alone. And when he (the Holy Prophet) became unattentive, I hinted them and they went out, and it was the day of 'Id and the black men were playing with shields and spears. (I do not remember) whether I asked the Messenger of Allah or whether he said to me if I desired to see (that sport). I said: Yes. I stood behind him with his face parallel to my face, and he said: O Banu Arfada, be busy (in your sports) till I was satiated. He said (to me): Is that enough? I said: Yes. Upon this he asked me to go.
حَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ، وَيُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، - وَاللَّفْظُ لِهَارُونَ - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرٌو، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ وَعِنْدِي جَارِيَتَانِ تُغَنِّيَانِ بِغِنَاءِ بُعَاثٍ فَاضْطَجَعَ عَلَى الْفِرَاشِ وَحَوَّلَ وَجْهَهُ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَانْتَهَرَنِي وَقَالَ مِزْمَارُ الشَّيْطَانِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ دَعْهُمَا ‏"‏ فَلَمَّا غَفَلَ غَمَزْتُهُمَا فَخَرَجَتَا وَكَانَ يَوْمَ عِيدٍ يَلْعَبُ السُّودَانُ بِالدَّرَقِ وَالْحِرَابِ فَإِمَّا سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَإِمَّا قَالَ ‏"‏ تَشْتَهِينَ تَنْظُرِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَأَقَامَنِي وَرَاءَهُ خَدِّي عَلَى خَدِّهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ دُونَكُمْ يَا بَنِي أَرْفَدَةَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ حَتَّى إِذَا مَلِلْتُ قَالَ ‏"‏ حَسْبُكِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَاذْهَبِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's tolerance and kindness. It is narrated by 'A'isha, who was one of the wives of the Prophet Muhammad. In this hadith, she recounts how two girls were singing in her apartment when the Prophet entered. Abu Bakr scolded her for it, but instead of getting angry, the Prophet told him to leave them alone. He then asked A'isha if she wanted to watch a sport with some people from Banu Arfada tribe and she agreed. After watching it for some time, he asked her if that was enough and then let her go. This hadith teaches us that we should be tolerant towards others even if they do something we don't agree with or find inappropriate; we should not be too quick to judge or scold them as this could hurt their feelings unnecessarily. We should also show kindness towards others by allowing them to do what they want without interfering too much in their lives or trying to control them too much; this will help create an atmosphere of respect between people which can lead to better relationships overall.
