Feroz, a Parsi slave of Mughirah ibn Shu'bah, whose surname was Abululothi, complained to Hazrat Umar (RA) about the heavy tax levied by his master, the complaint was unfounded, so Hazrat Umar did not pay attention, he was so angry that in the morning prayer, he suddenly attacked with a dagger and attacked him one after the other.
