Sayyiduna Tamim al-Dari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I said: "O Messenger of Allah, a man from the polytheists accepts Islam at the hands of a Muslim (what is the ruling)?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He (the Muslim) is the person with the greatest right over him, in his life and in his death."
