When this verse was revealed: “... and whether you disclose what is in your own selves or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it...” [al-Baqarah 2:284], their hearts were filled with distress as never before. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: “Say: We hear and we obey and submit." Then Allah instilled faith in their hearts and He revealed: The Messenger (Muhammad (ﷺ)) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. (They say,) ‘We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers' - and they say, 'We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all).’ Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. ‘Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error, our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us (Jews and Christians); our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Mawla (Patron. Supporter and Protector) and give us victory over the disbelieving people” (al-Baqarah 2:285,286).

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas that when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sent Mu'adh bin Jabal to Yemen, he said:

"You are going to some of the People of the Book. Call them to bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah. lf they obey you in that, then teach them that Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has enjoined upon them five prayers each day and night. If they obey you in that, then teach them that Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, has enjoined upon them charity (zakah) to be taken from their rich and given to their poor. If they obey you in that, beware of taking the best of their wealth, and fear the supplication of one who has been wronged, for there is no barrier between it and Allah, may He be glorified and exalted.”

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) trotted (around the Ka'bah) but it is not Sunnah. He came [to Makkah] when the mushrikeen were on Mount Qu'aiqi'an and saying that they [the Muslims] were emaciated and exhausted, so he told them to trot around the House in order to show them [the mushrikeen] that they were not exhausted.
