3861. Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Do not abuse my Companions, for by the One in Whose Hand is my soul! If one of you were to spend gold the like of Uḥud, it would not equal a Mudd – nor half of it – of one of them." (Sahih)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Sahih.
And the meaning of his saying: "Half of it" is half of a Mudd (of one of them).
(Another chain) from Abū Sa'eed, from the Prophet ﷺ, with similar narration.

Commentary
The Companions addressed in this narration are those who embraced Islam when the easy and painless period of Muslims had begun after the conquests. Those who had accepted Islam in the early period, they had borne the tyranny of disbelievers. Economic conditions of Muslims were also very weak and they had to tolerate every kind of severity and cruelty on the hands of disbelievers. Therefore, those who accepted Islam in latter period should not abuse the Muslims of that early period.
