Ali bin Abi Talib said “I had an old she Camel that I got as my share from the booty on the day of Badr. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم also gave me an old she camel from the fifth that day. When I intended to cohabit with Fathimah daughter of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم, I made arrangement with a man who was a goldsmith belonging to Banu Qainuqa’ to go with me so that we may bring grass. I intended to sell it to the goldsmith there by seeking help in my wedding feast. While I was collecting for my old Camels saddles, baskets and ropes both of she Camels were seated in a corner of the apartment of a man of the Ansar. When I collected what I collected (i. e., equipment) I turned (towards them). I suddenly found that the humps of she Camels were cut off and their hips were pierced and their lives were taken out. I could not control my eyes (to weep) when I saw that scene. I said “Who has done this?” They (the people) replied “Hamzah bin Abd Al Muttalib”. He is among the drunkards of the Ansar in this house. A singing girl is singing for him and his Companions. While singing she said “Oh Hamza, rise to these plumpy old she Camels. So he jumped to the sword and cut off their humps, pierced their hips and took out their livers. ” Ali said “I went till I entered upon the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم while Zaid bin Harithah was with him. ” The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم realized what I had met with. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم aid “What is the matter with you?” I said Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم, I never saw the thing that happened with me today. Hamzah wronged my she Camels, he cut off their humps, pierced their hips. Lo! He is in a house with drunkards. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم asked for his cloak. It was brought to him. He then went out, I and Zaid bin Harithah followed him until we reached the house where Hamzah was. He asked permission ( to entre). He was permitted. He found drunkards there. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم began to rebuke him (Hamzah) for his action. Hamzah was intoxicated and his eyes were reddish. Hamzah looked at the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. He then raised his eyes and looked at his knees, he then raised his eyes and looked at his navel and he then raised his eyes and looked at his face. Hamzah then said “Are you but the salves of my father? Then the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم knew that he was intoxicated. So the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم moved backward. He then went out and we also went out with him. ”

The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم acquired some slaves”. So I said “Would that you go to your father and ask him for a slave. She then came to him and found some people with him talking to him. She therefore returned. Next day she came again. He asked (her), what was your need? But she kept silence. So I said, I inform you, Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. She pulled grinding stone so much that it affected her hand, she carried water bag so much so that it affected the upper portion of her chest.

The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: Had I appointed blood-money for a polytheist, I should have appointed it for your brother. But I shall give you compensation for him. So the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم wrote (a document) for him that he should be given a hundred camels which were to be acquired from the fifth taken from the polytheists of Banu Dhuhl. So he took a part of them, for Banu Dhuhl embraced Islam. He then asked Abu Bakr for them later on, and brought to him the document of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم. So Abu Bakr wrote for him that he should be given one thousand two hundred sa's from the sadaqah of al-Yamamah; four thousand (sa's) of wheat, four thousand (sa's) of barley, and four thousand (sa's) of dates. The text of the document written by the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم for Mujjaah was as follows: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.
