Narrated Ibn `Umar: The Prophet stood at the well of Badr (which contained the corpses of the pagans) and said, Have you found true what your lord promised you? Then he further said, They now hear what I say. This was mentioned before `Aisha and she said, But the Prophet said, 'Now they know very well that what I used to tell them was the truth.' Then she recited (the Holy Verse):-- You cannot make the dead hear... ...till the end of Verse). (30.52)

So we found her riding her camel at the place which Allah's Apostle had mentioned. We said (to her), (Give us) the letter. She said, I have no letter. Then we made her camel kneel down and we searched her, but we found no letter. Then we said, Allah's Apostle had not told us a lie, certainly. Take out the letter, otherwise we will strip you naked. When she saw that we were determined, she put her hand below her waist belt, for she had tied her cloak round her waist, and she took out the letter, and we brought her to Allah's Apostle Then `Umar said, O Allah's Apostle! (This Hatib) has betrayed Allah, His Apostle and the believers! Let me cut off his neck! The Prophet asked Hatib, What made you do this?

There is none of your companions but has some of his relatives there through whom Allah protects his family and property. The Prophet said, He has spoken the truth; do no say to him but good. `Umar said, He as betrayed Allah, His Apostle and the faithful believers. Let me cut off his neck!

' On this, tears came out of `Umar's eyes, and he said, Allah and His Apostle know better.
