[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ trapped the people of Ta'if, as if he did not receive anything from them. He said, "We will leave, if Allah wills." The Muslims said, "Should we leave without conquering it?" He said, "March towards battle." So they set out and were wounded. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "We will leave, as if they desired that." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed.
حَاصَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَهْلَ الطَّائِفِ فَكَأَنَّهُ لَمْ يَنَلْ مِنْهُمْ شَيْئًا فَقَالَ «إِنَّا قَافِلُونَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللهُ» فَقَالَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ نَذْهَبُ وَلَمْ يُفْتَتَحْ؟ قَالَ «اغْدُوا عَلَى الْقِتَالِ فَغَدَوْا فَأَصَابَهُمْ جِرَاحَةٌ» فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّا قَافِلُونَ فَكَأَنَّهُمُ اشْتَهَوْا ذَلِكَ فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ»
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "O Allah, whoever is granted authority over any matter of my nation, should show them compassion, so please, be compassionate towards them."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ مَنْ وَلِيَ مِنْ أَمْرِ أُمَّتِي شَيْئًا فَرَفَقَ بِهِمْ فَارْفُقْ بِهِ»
[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "Every shepherd is responsible for his flock. The imam is a shepherd and he is responsible for his flock." It is abbreviated.
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ «كُلُّ رَاعٍ مَسْؤُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ الْإِمَامُ رَاعٍ وَمَسْؤُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ» مُخْتَصَرٌ
