Then they said, "There is an example for this companion of yours." One of them said, "Then set forth an example for him." Some of them said, "He is sleeping." The others said, "His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake." Then they said, "His example is that of a man who has built a house and then offered therein a banquet and sent an inviter (messenger) to invite the people. So whoever accepted the invitation of the inviter, entered the house and ate of the banquet, and whoever did not accept the invitation of the inviter, did not enter the house, nor did he eat of the banquet." Then the angels said, "Interpret this example to him so that he may understand it." Some of them said, "He is sleeping.'' The others said, "His eyes are sleeping but his heart is awake." And then they said, "The houses stands for Paradise and the call maker is Muhammad; and whoever obeys Muhammad, obeys Allah; and whoever disobeys Muhammad, disobeys Allah. Muhammad separated the people (i.e., through his message, the good is distinguished from the bad, and the believers from the disbelievers). Similarly, Saeed bin Abu Hilal has reported from Hadrat Jabir that Allah Apostle ﷺ came to us.

Then a group of his people obeyed him and fled at night proceeding stealthily till they were safe, while another group of them disbelieved him and stayed at their places till morning when the army came upon them, and killed and ruined them completely So this is the example of that person who obeys me and follows what I have brought (the Qur'an and the Sunna), and the example of the one who disobeys me and disbelieves the truth I have brought."

English: When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) died and Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ was elected as a Caliph after him, some of the Arabs reverted to disbelief, `Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said to Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ , "How dare you fight the people while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, 'I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah. And whoever says: None has the right to be worshipped but Allah, saves his wealth and his life from me unless he deserves a legal punishment lusty, and his account will be with Allah.' " Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ said, "By Allah, I will fight him who discriminates between Zakat and prayers, for Zakat is the Compulsory right to be taken from the wealth By Allah, if they refuse to give me even a tying rope which they use to give to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), I would fight them for withholding it." `Umar رضی اللہ عنہ said, "By Allah, It was nothing, except I saw that Allah had opened the chest of Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ to the fight, and I came to know for certain that was the truth." Abu Bakir and Abdullah bin Saleh called Layth "عَنَاقًا‏" (instead of ``Aqla'' meaning goat kid) and this is more correct.
