Authentic hadith of Sahih al-Bukhari Sahih al-Bukhari 4117

Narrator:Ā’ishah

حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ

لَمَّا رَجَعَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِنَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَوَضَعَ السِّلاَحَ وَاغْتَسَلَ، أَتَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ ـ عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَمُ ـ فَقَالَ قَدْ وَضَعْتَ السِّلاَحَ وَاللَّهِ مَا وَضَعْنَاهُ، فَاخْرُجْ إِلَيْهِمْ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَإِلَى أَيْنَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ هَا هُنَا، وَأَشَارَ إِلَى بَنِي قُرَيْظَةَ، فَخَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِلَيْهِمْ

‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) returned from the battle of the Trench and put down his arms and took a bath, Jibrīl (peace be upon him) came and said (to him): "You had put down your arms? By Allah, we (i.e. the angels) have not put them down yet. So, set out for them." The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Where to go?" Jibrīl said: "Towards this side", pointing towards the Banu Qurayzhah. So, the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) headed towards them.

Explanation

When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) returned from the battle of the Trench, also known as the battle of the Confederates, after Allah had granted him victory against the disbelievers of the Quraysh and those who supported them, he entered his house, put down the war gear, and took a bath to wash away the dust of the battle. Jibrīl (peace be upon him) came and told him: You had put down your weapon, but the angels have not yet put them down and are still carrying theirs. Then he ordered him to set out to fight the Banu Qurayzhah, a Jewish community that lived at the outskirts of Madīnah, who betrayed the covenant of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and helped the disbelievers. The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) set out with his Companions, fought them, and Allah rewarded them with victory over their enemies.

Explanation in Arabic

لما رجع النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم من غزوة الخندق وهي غزوة الأحزاب، وقد نصره الله على كفار قريش ومن عاونهم، دخل بيته وألقى السلاح، واغتسل من غبار المعركة، فأتاه جبريل -عليه السلام-، وقال له: إنك قد ألقيت السلاح، ولكن الملائكة ما زالت مرتدية له وما ألقته، ثم أمره بالخروج لقتال بني قريظة، وهم طائفة من اليهود حول المدينة، قد نقضوا العهد مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وساعدوا الكفار، فخرج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بمن معه من الصحابة فقاتلوهم ونصرهم الله على عدوهم.

  • أن النبي -صلى الله عليه وسلم- لم يخرج إلى حرب إلا بإذن من الله -تعالى-.
  • أن الملائكة تصحب المجاهدين فى سبيل الله، وأنها فى عونهم ما استقاموا.
  • أن اليهود أهل غدر وخيانة.
