ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْإِمَامِ لُزُومُ الْعَدْلِ فِي رَعِيَّتِهِ مَعَ الرَّأْفَةِ بِهِمْ وَالشَّفَقَةِ عَلَيْهِمْ

[Machine] Indeed, the Prophet ﷺ sent Abu Jahl bin Hudhayfah as a representative to collect charity. A man refused to give him charity, so Abu Jahl struck him and injured him. They all went to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, seek justice!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "You have this and that." They were not satisfied, so he said again, "You have this and that." They were still not satisfied, so he said, "You have this and that." Finally, they agreed and said, "Are you satisfied?" They replied, "Yes."  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٨٧أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا فَيَّاضُ بْنُ زُهَيْرٍ* قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بَعَثَ أَبَا جَهْمِ بْنِ حُذَيْفَةَ مُصَدِّقًا فَلَاجَّهُ رَجُلٌ فِي صَدَقَتِهِ فَضَرَبَهُ أَبُو جَهْمٍ فَشَجَّهُ فَأَتَوَا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا الْقَوَدُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا» فَلَمْ يَرْضَوْا فَقَالَ «لَكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا» فَلَمْ يَرْضَوْا فَقَالَ «لَكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا» فَرَضُوا وَقَالَ «أَرَضِيتُمْ؟ » قَالُوا نَعَمْ

The Prophet ﷺ sent AbuJahm ibn Hudhayfah as a collector of zakat. A man quarrelled with him about his sadaqah (i.e. zakat), and AbuJahm struck him and wounded his head. His people came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Revenge, Messenger of Allah! The Prophet ﷺ said: You may have so much and so much. But they did not agree. He again said: You may have so much and so much. But they did not agree. He again said: You may have so much and so much. So they agreed. The Prophet ﷺ said: I am going to address the people in the afternoon and tell them about your consent. They said: Yes. Addressing (the people), the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: These people of faith came to me asking for revenge. I presented them with so much and so much and they agreed. Do you agree? They said: No. The immigrants (muhajirun) intended (to take revenge) on them. But the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded them to refrain and they refrained. He then called them and increased (the amount), and asked: Do you agree? They replied: Yes. He said: I am going to address the people and tell them about your consent. They said: Yes. The Prophet ﷺ addressed and said: Do you agree? They said: Yes. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4534)
