Summary

A report of Jabir ibn Abdullah (may God be pleased with him) in the chapter on his prohibition of the call of the Jahiliyya, in the Book of Righteousness of Sahih Muslim. After a quarrel, the Emigrants and the Ansar appealed to their tribes, and the Prophet ﷺ called it the stinking call of the Jahiliyya. The hadith also teaches helping a brother who wrongs others by stopping him from injustice, and helping the wronged by supporting him. 1
