When our prophet emigrated to Medina and Islam's foundation was established, some of the Helpers went to the prophet and told him:- ``You may make use of all our wealth and properties without any condition for the cause.''
In answer to them, the prophet was instructed by inspiration to say:- ``I do not ask you any reward for it, except loving my Dearers and Nearers.''
The believers returned happily, but some of the hypocrites said:- ``Mohammad has forged that lie to Allah, so as to make his own kith and kin his successors, in order to rule over us after him''. When they said so, a new revelation came saying:-
``Do they say he has forged a lie against Allah? But had Allah willed, He could set a seal upon your heart; and Allah will blot out the falsehood and vindicate the Truth by His word, that He knows best the contents of the hearts.''
When this announcement was heard, a few of the hypocrites repented and returned.
