It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the wife of Sayyiduna al-Walid bin Uqbah (may Allah be pleased with him) came into the noble presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "Indeed, al-Walid beats me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and tell him: 'The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has granted me his protection.'" Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: She came back only a short while later and said: "He has only increased his beating of me." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) took hold of a fringe (or a thread) of his blessed garment, gave it to her and said: "Go and tell him: 'The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has granted me his protection.'" She came back again a short while later and said: "He has beaten me even more." At this he (peace and blessings be upon him) raised both his hands and supplicated: 'Allahumma 'alayka bil-Walid' (O Allah, deal with al-Walid (or: seize him in Your grip)).
