وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ (قَالَ): إِنَّ رَجُلًا تَقَاضَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَغْلَظَ، فَهَمَّ أَصْحَابُهُ، فَقَالَ: «دَعُوهُ؛ فَإِنَّ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَقِّ مَقَالًا».
Translation: Abu Hurayrah reported that a man demanded repayment from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and spoke harshly. When the Companions were about to react, the Prophet ﷺ said, “Leave him; a person with a right has a claim to speak.”
تَقَاضَى refers to demanding the fulfillment of a right or repayment. فَأَغْلَظَ indicates harshness of speech. The Prophet ﷺ did not allow the man's tone to become a reason to ignore his claim.
The right to make a claim should not be confused with approval of every manner in which it is voiced.
