Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: “Those abiding by Allah’s Laws in comparison to those who violate them are like people who drew lots for their seats on a ship. Some of them got seats on the upper deck and some on the lower. When the ones below needed water, they had to go to the upper deck to get it (which troubled those on the upper deck), so they said, ‘Let us make a hole in our part of the ship to get water and save those above us from trouble.’ If the people on the upper deck allow them to do what they have suggested, everyone on the ship will drown; but if they prevent them, all the people will be safe.” (Al-Bukhari)
