باب مَنْ وَرَّى فِي يَمِينِهِ

Sunan Ibn Majah, Book of The Expiation(view book)

It was narrated that Suwaid bin Hanzalah said:
"We went out looking for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and Wa'il bin Hujr was with us. An enemy of his seized him and the people were reluctant to swear an oath but I swore that he was my brother, so they set him free. We came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I told him that the people had been reluctant to swear an oath, but I had sworn that he was my brother. He said: 'You told the truth. The Muslim is the brother of his fellow Muslim.' "
