Hadith Commentary: ➊ Karmani has said: Banu Ghanm is a tribe that is related to Banu Taghlib. This is a misconception because they were not in Madinah at that time. What is meant here is a branch of the tribe of Khazraj, who were among the Ansar. Abu Ayyub al-Ansari radi Allahu anhu was also from this family. (‘Umdat al-Qari: 10/576)
➋ The narrator of the hadith, Musa ibn Isma‘il, has been cited by Imam al-Bukhari rahimahullah with a connected chain of narration. This refers to the time when the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam set out to deal with Banu Qurayzah. (Sahih al-Bukhari, al-Maghazi, Hadith: 4118)
➌ Since this hadith mentions Jibril (Gabriel) and his army, Imam al-Bukhari rahimahullah has used this hadith as evidence for the existence of angels.
