Tufail bin `Amr came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "The Daus (nation) have perished as they disobeyed
and refused to accept Islam. So invoke Allah against them." But the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Give
guidance to the Daus (tribe) and bring them (to Islam)!"

We were sitting with Ibn Masud when Khabbab came and said, "O Abu `Abdur-Rahman! Can these
young fellows recite Quran as you do?" Ibn Mas`ud said, "If you wish I can order one of them to
recite (Quran) for you ." Khabbab replied, "Yes. "Ibn Mas`ud said, "Recite, O 'Alqama!" On that,
Zaid bin Hudair, the brother of Ziyad bin Hudair said, (to Ibn Mas`ud), "Why have you ordered
'Alqama to recite though he does not recite better than we?" Ibn Mas`ud said, "If you like, I would tell
you what the Prophet (ﷺ) said about your nation and his (i.e. 'Alqama's) nation." So I recited fifty Verses
from Sura-Maryam. `Abdullah (bin Mas`ud) said to Khabbab, "What do you think (about 'Alqama's
recitation)?" Khabbab said, "He has recited well." `Abdullah said, "Whatever I recite, 'Alqama
recites." Then `Abdullah turned towards Khabbab and saw that he was wearing a gold ring,
whereupon he said, "Hasn't the time for its throwing away come yet?" Khabbab said, "You will not
see me wearing it after today," and he throw it away.

When I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) said on my way, "O what a long tedious tiresome night; nevertheless, it
has rescued me from the place of Heathenism." A slave of mine ran away on the way. When I reached
the Prophet (ﷺ) I gave him the oath of allegiance (for Islam), and while I was sitting with him, suddenly
the slave appeared. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to me. "O Abu Huraira! Here is your slave," I said, "He (i.e. the
slave) is (free) for Allah's Sake," and manumitted him.
