Pearl of Wisdom

It is narrated that while the Prophet (SAWA) was handing out gold bullion on the day of [the battle of] Hunayn, a man came to him and said, ?O Muhammad, act fairly!', The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Woe to you, if I am not fair then who is fair?' or he said, 'With whom will you find fairness besides me?' after which he said, 'Soon there will come a people like this who will seek the Book of Allah while being its enemy, they will read the Book of Allah but the words will not go higher than their throat. They will have shaved heads, so when they arise [to revolt] slay their necks.'
