Narrated Um Hani: the daughter of Abu Talib: I went to Allah's Apostle on the day of the conquest of Mecca and found him taking a bath, and his daughter Fatima was screening him. I greeted him and he asked, Who is that? I said, I, Um Hani bint Abi Talib. He said, Welcome, O Um Hani. When he had finished his bath, he stood up and offered eight rak`at while dressed in one garment. I said, O Allah's Apostle! My brother `Ali has declared that he will kill a man to whom I have granted asylum. The man is so and-so bin Hubaira. Allah's Apostle said, O Um Hani! We will grant asylum to the one whom you have granted asylum. (Um Hani said, That (visit) took place in the Duha (i.e. forenoon)).

So, whoever innovates in it an heresy or commits a sin or gives shelter in it, to such an innovator will incur the Curse of Allah, the angels and all the people, and none of his compulsory or optional good deeds of worship will be accepted. And whoever (freed slave) takes as his master (i.e. befriends) other than his real masters will incur the same (Curse). And the asylum granted by any Muslim is to be secured by all the other Muslims, and whoever betrays a Muslim in this respect will incur the same (Curse).

The!y said, How should we believe in the oaths of infidels? So, the Prophet himself paid the blood money (of `Abdullah). (See Hadith No. 36 Vol. 9.)
