It says here:
>a man spoke harshly to Abu Bakr. Abu Barzah said: Shall I strike his neck? He rebuked him and said: That is not for any one after the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).
**[ [Musnad Ahmad](https://sunnah.com/ahmad:54) ]** At first i thought it meant neck striking is only punishment for speaking harshly about a prophet. But somebody told me Abu Bakr meant to say only the prophet can judge.
