Riyad as-Salihin 260 (Book) #38645
Invoking the Lord

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) was asked to drive away a group of people, but Allah revealed to him that he should not turn away those who invoke their Lord.

Sa'd bin Abu Waqqas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Six of us were with the Prophet when the infidels said to him: "Drive these ones away, lest they should begin to venture against us". The six were, myself, Ibn Mas'ud, a man of the Hudhail tribe, Bilal and two other men whose names I don't know. Messenger of Allah thought what Allah wished him to think, and Allah revealed: "And turn not away those who invoke their Rabb, morning and afternoon seeking His Face". (6:52) Muslim.
وعن سعد بن أبي وقاص رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ كنا مع النبي ستة نفر، فقال المشركون للنبي ‏:‏ اطرد هؤلاء لايجترئون علينا، وكنت أنا وابن مسعود ورجلان لست أسميهما، فوقع في نفس رسول الله ما شاء الله أن يقع، فحدث نفسه، فأنزل الله تعالى‏:‏ ‏{‏ولا تطرد الذين يدعون ربهم بالغداة والعشي يريدون وجهه‏}‏ ‏(‏‏(‏الأنعام‏:‏ 52‏:‏ رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was asked by some non-believers to drive away a group of people. However, before he could do so, Allah revealed to him that he should not turn away those who invoke their Lord morning and afternoon seeking His Face. This teaches us that we should always be respectful and kind towards others regardless of our differences in beliefs or opinions. We must remember that everyone has the right to worship God in their own way and no one has the right to stop them from doing so. Furthermore, it is important for us all to seek out God's guidance and mercy in our lives as this will bring us closer to Him and help us lead better lives.
