Abu Barza reported that Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) sent a person to a tribe amongst the tribes of Arabia. They reviled him and beat him. He came to Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) and narrated to him (the story of atrocities perpetrated upon him by the people of the tribe). Thereupon he (the Prophet) said: If you were to come to the people of 'Uman, they would have neither reviled you nor beaten you.
