Sunan Abi Dawud 2724 (Book 15, Hadith 248) #23014
The Prophet's Response to Accusations

SUMMARY: This hadith is about a man who was accused of killing a Muslim, and the Prophet's response to the accusation.

Abu Hurairah said "I came to Madeenah when the Abu Apostle of Allaah was in Khaibar, after it was captured. I asked him to give me a share from the booty. A son of Sa’id bin Al 'As spoke and said "Do not give him any share, Apostle of Allaah. I said "This is the killer of Ibn Qauqal". (The son of) Sa’id bin Al 'As said "Oh, how wonderful! A Wabr who came down to us from the peak of Dal blames me of having killed a Muslim whom Allaah honored at my hands and did not disgrace me at his hands. Abu Dawud said "They were about ten persons. Six of them were killed and the remaining returned.
حَدَّثَنَا حَامِدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْبَلْخِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، وَسَأَلَهُ، إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ فَحَدَّثَنَاهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنَ سَعِيدٍ الْقُرَشِيَّ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِخَيْبَرَ حِينَ افْتَتَحَهَا فَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ يُسْهِمَ لِي فَتَكَلَّمَ بَعْضُ وُلْدِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ فَقَالَ لاَ تُسْهِمْ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا قَاتِلُ ابْنِ قَوْقَلٍ فَقَالَ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْعَاصِ يَا عَجَبًا لِوَبْرٍ قَدْ تَدَلَّى عَلَيْنَا مِنْ قَدُومِ ضَالٍ يُعَيِّرُنِي بِقَتْلِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ أَكْرَمَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى يَدَىَّ وَلَمْ يُهِنِّي عَلَى يَدَيْهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ هَؤُلاَءِ كَانُوا نَحْوَ عَشَرَةٍ فَقُتِلَ مِنْهُمْ سِتَّةٌ وَرَجَعَ مَنْ بَقِيَ

In this hadith, Abu Hurairah recounts an incident in which he asked the Prophet for a share of booty from Khaibar. A son of Said bin Al 'As then spoke up and accused him of killing Ibn Qauqal. The Prophet responded by saying that it was wrong to accuse someone without proof, as it could lead to injustice and disrespect towards them. He also reminded them that Allaah honors those who are innocent and does not disgrace them at his hands. This hadith teaches us that we should always be respectful towards others, even if they are accused of something wrong or bad. We should never jump to conclusions without having any evidence or proof first, as this can lead to injustice and disrespecting someone who may be innocent after all. We should also remember that Allaah honors those who are innocent and does not disgrace them at his hands - so we must always strive for justice in our dealings with others.
