So, the Muslims prayed for Allah to save them from him. For this reason, Allah's Apostle ordered Ali bin Abu Talib (a), the hero of Islam, to kill al-Nadhar bin al-Harith to save the deprived Muslims from his torture. Al-Miqdad said.

Allah's Apostle, he's my prisoner! The Prophet (s) knew that al-Miqdad wanted ransom.
