When some of the energetic youths of Arab tribes came together to form a peace committee under the name of "Hulf-ul-Fuzul" (The League of Virtuous), the Rasool didn't lag behind and became an active member of the committee. Similarly, when once a strife had arisen among various Arab clans over the setting of the Black Stone (Al-Hajr-ul-Aswad) in its place, it was the 35 years who helped old Hazrat Muhammad prevent a serious conflict by resolving the issue very sagaciously.
