Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 45, Hadith 71
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “We would sit with the Messenger of Allah in the Masjid and when he stood up, we would stand up too, Only day he stood up and we stood up with him, and when he reached the middle of the Masjid, a man caught up with him and pulled roughly on his Rida’ (upper-warp) from behind. His Rida ‘was of rough material, and that left a red mark on his neck. He said: ‘O Muhammad! Load up these two camels of mine, for you are not giving me anything from your wealth or the wealth of your father!’ The Messenger of Allah said: ‘The Messenger of Allah said: ‘No, and I pray for Allah’s forgiveness. I will not load anything (onto your camels) untily you let me retaliate for your pulling roughly (on my cloak and leaving a mark on) my neck.’ The Bedouin said: ‘No, by Allah, I will not let you retaliate., The Messenger of Allah said that three times, and each time the man said: ‘No, by Allah, I will not let you retaliate., When we heard what the Bedouin said, we turned toward him quickly. The Messenger of Allah turned to us and said; ‘I urge anyone who hears me not to leave his place until give him permission. Then the Messenger of Allah said: ‘O so and so, load one of his camels with barley and the other with dates.’ Then the Messenger of Allah said: ‘Leave,”‘
