Yahya related to me from Malik from Humayd at-Tawil from Anas ibn
Malik that when the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, went out to Khaybar, he arrived there at night, and when he
came upon a people by night, he did not attack until morning. In the
morning, the jews came out with their spades and baskets. When they
saw him, they said, "Muhammad! By Allah, Muhammad and his army!" The
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said
"Allah is greater! Khaybar is destroyed. When we come to a people, it
is an evil morning for those who have been warned . "
Muwatta Malik Book 21, Hadith 50
Messenger of Allah, has there come upon you a day more terrible than the day of Uhud. He said: I have experienced from thy people and the hardest treatment I met from them was what I received from them on the day of `Aqaba. I betook myself to Ibn `Abd Yalil b. `Abd Kulal with the purpose of inviting him to Islam, but he did not respond to me as I desired. So I departed with signs of (deep) distress on my face. I did not recover until I reached Qarn al-Tha`alib. Where I raised my head, lo! near me was a cloud which had cast its shadow on me. I looked and lo! there was in it the angel Jibril who called out to me and said: God, the Honoured and Glorious, has heard what thy people have said to thee, and how they have reacted to thy call. And He has sent to thee the angel in charge of the mountains so that thou mayest order him what thou wishest (him to do) with regard to them. The angel in charge of the mountains (then) called out to me, greeted me and said: Muhammad, God has listened to what thy people have said to thee. I am the angel in charge of the mountains, and thy Lord has sent me to thee so that thou mayest order me what thou wishest. If thou wishest that I should bring together the two mountains that stand opposite to each other at the extremities of Mecca to crush them in between, (I would do that). But the Messenger of Allah (may peace he upon him) said to him: I rather hope that God will produce from their descendants such persons as will worship Allah, the One, and will not ascribe partners to Him.
Sahih Muslim Book 32, Hadith 135
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The example of Muslims, Jews and Christians is like the example of a man who
employed laborers to work for him from morning till night for specific wages. They worked till
midday and then said, 'We do not need your money which you have fixed for us and let whatever we
have done be annulled.' The man said to them, 'Don't quit the work, but complete the rest of it and
take your full wages.' But they refused and went away. The man employed another batch after them
and said to them, 'Complete the rest of the day and yours will be the wages I had fixed for the first
batch.' So, they worked till the time of `Asr prayer. Then they said, "Let what we have done be
annulled and keep the wages you have promised us for yourself.' The man said to them, 'Complete the
rest of the work, as only a little of the day remains,' but they refused. Thereafter he employed another
batch to work for the rest of the day and they worked for the rest of the day till the sunset, and they
received the wages of the two former batches. So, that was the example of those people (Muslims) and
the example of this light (guidance) which they have accepted willingly.
