Narrated Abu Huraira: A Muslim and a Jew quarreled. The Muslim taking an oath, said, By Him Who has preferred Muhammad over all people...! The Jew said, By Him Who has preferred Moses, over all people. The Muslim raised his hand and slapped the Jew who came to the Prophet to tell him what had happened between him and the Muslim.

I will not know if he has been among those people who have become unconscious; and that he has gained consciousness before me, or he has been amongst those whom Allah has exempted.
