Sulayman ibn Surad, one of the Companions of the Prophet, said, “Two men reviled one another in the presence of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and one of them became angry. He became so angry that his face puffed out and changed colour. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘I know some words which will make what he feels depart if he says them.’ The man came to him and told him what the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had said, He said, ‘Seek refuge with Allah from the Accursed Shaytan.’ He said, ‘Do you think that there is something wrong with me? Am I mad? Leave!’”

Ibn ‘Abbas said, “Two men defamed one another in the time of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. One of them reviled the other who remained silent.

He was asked, “You got up?” He said, “The angels left, so I left with them. While this man was silent, the angels were answering the one who cursed him. When he answered, the angels left.”

‘Ali said. “The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sent for me and az-Zubayr ibn al-‘Awwam while we were both on horseback and said, ‘Go to such-and-such a meadow. There is a woman there who has a letter with her from Hatib to the idolaters. Bring her to me.’ We found her rising along on one of her camels as the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, had described her. We said, ‘[Give us] the letter you have with you.’ ‘I do not have any letter,’ she replied. We searched and her camel. My companion said, ‘I do not see it.’ I said, ‘The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, does not lie. By the One in whose hand my soul is, I will strip her unless she produces it!’ She put her hand in the knot of her shawl – as she was wearing a black shawl – and brought it out. We went back to the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. ‘Umar exclaimed, ‘He (i.e. Hatim) has betrayed Allah, His Messenger, and the believers! Let me strike off his head!’ He asked, ‘What made you do it?’ Hatim said, ‘I believe in Allah, but I want to have some authority with the people.’ He said, ;He has spoken the truth, ‘Umar. Was he not present at Badr? Perhaps Allah has looked on them and said, “Do whatever you like. The Garden is guaranteed for you.”‘ ‘Umar wept and said, ‘Allah and His Messenger know best.””
