We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) and he was holding the hand of `Umar bin Al-Khattab. `Umar said to Him,
"O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! You are dearer to me than everything except my own self." The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"No, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, (you will not have complete faith) till I am dearer to you than
your own self." Then `Umar said to him, "However, now, by Allah, you are dearer to me than my own
self." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Now, O `Umar, (now you are a believer).

Two men had a dispute in the presence of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). One of them said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)!
Judge between us according to Allah's Laws." The other who was wiser, said, "Yes, O Allah's
Apostle! Judge between us according to Allah's Laws and allow me to speak. The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Speak." He said, "My son was a laborer serving this (person) and he committed illegal sexual
intercourse with his wife, The people said that my son is to be stoned to death, but I ransomed him
with one-hundred sheep and a slave girl. Then I asked the learned people, who informed me that my
son should receive one hundred lashes and will be exiled for one year, and stoning will be the lot for
the man's wife." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Indeed, by Him in Whose Hand my soul is, I will judge
between you according to Allah's Laws: As for your sheep and slave girl, they are to be returned to
you." Then he scourged his son one hundred lashes and exiled him for one year. Then Unais Al-
Aslami was ordered to go to the wife of the second man, and if she confessed (the crime), then stone
her to death. She did confess, so he stoned her to death.
