Abdullah bin Harith, may Allah have mercy on him, says that during the caliphate of Hazrat Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him, my father arranged my marriage and invited several companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) to it. Among them was Hazrat Safwan bin Umayyah, may Allah be pleased with him, who had become extremely old. When he came, he said that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Tear the meat with your teeth and eat it, for it is more pleasant and easier to digest this way."

It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Hunayn, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him for some armors as a loan. (At that time, Safwan had not yet embraced Islam.) He asked, "O Muhammad! Are you taking them with the intention of seizing them by force?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied, "No, with the intention of borrowing, for which I am a guarantor." Coincidentally, some of those armors were lost. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) offered him compensation for them, but he said, "O Messenger of Allah! Today I feel a greater inclination towards Islam."

It is narrated from Hazrat Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that someone said to him that whoever does not migrate is ruined. Upon hearing this, I said that I will not go to my home until I meet the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So I mounted my ride and presented myself before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Some people are saying that whoever has not migrated is ruined? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Abu Wahb! There is absolutely no such thing. You may return to the plain of Makkah." While I was sleeping in Masjid Nabawi, a thief came and took the cloth from under my head and left. I chased him, caught him, and presented him before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said that this person has stolen my cloth. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered his hand to be cut off. I said: O Messenger of Allah! That was not my intention; this cloth is charity for him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then why did you not give it in charity before bringing him to me?"
