A polytheist spat on the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) in Mecca. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said about him: "If Allah gives me power over him, I will kill him." When he was brought as a captive and he accepted Islam, the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Allah has forbidden me to kill those who pray; release him."
