Q
What can be learned about the Prophet’s approach to resolving disputes among his followers?


A

Mu`adh bin Jabal used to pray with the Prophet (ﷺ) and then go to lead his people in prayer. Once he led
the people in prayer and recited Surat-al-Baqara. A man left (the row of the praying people) and
offered (light) prayer (separately) and went away. When Mu`adh came to know about it, he said. “He
(that man) is a hypocrite.” Later that man heard what Mu`adh said about him, so he came to the
Prophet and said, “O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)! We are people who work with our own hands and irrigate (our
farms) with our camels. Last night Mu`adh led us in the (night) prayer and he recited Sura-al-Baqara,
so I offered my prayer separately, and because of that, he accused me of being a hypocrite.” The
Prophet called Mu`adh and said thrice, “O Mu`adh! You are putting the people to trials? Recite ‘Washshamsi
wad-uhaha’ (91) or’Sabbih isma Rabbi ka-l-A’la’ (87) or the like.”
