Narrated by Ibn Umar (Radhiallaho anho):
The Prophet (sallallaahu'alaihi wasallam) said, "Your
example and the example of the people of the two
Scriptures (i.e. Jews and Christians) is like the
example of a man who employed some laborers and asked
them, 'Who will work for me from morning till midday
for one Qirat?' The Jews accepted and carried out the
work. He then asked, Who will work for me from midday
up to the 'Asr prayer for one Qirat?' The Christians
accepted and fulfilled the work. He then said, 'Who
will work for me from the 'Asr till sunset for two
Qirats?' You, Muslims have accepted the offer. The
Jews and the Christians got angry and said, 'Why
should we work more and get lesser wages?' (Allah)
said, 'Have I withheld part of your right?' They
replied in the negative. He said, 'It is My Blessing,
I bestow upon whomever I wish .'
