(قَوْلُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شِعْرًا أَثْنَاءَ حَفْرِ الْخَنْدَقِ)
(The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, reciting poetry during the digging of the trench)
Hadith 4792
وَعَنِ الْبَرَّاءِ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ حَتَّى اغْبَرَّ بَطْنُهُ يَقُولُ: وَاللَّهِ لَوْلَا اللَّهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صلَّينا فأنزلنْ سكينَة علينا وثبِّتِ الْأَقْدَام إِن لاقينا إِنَّ الأولى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ: «أَبَيْنَا أَبَيْنَا» . مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ
Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was carrying earth on the day of the Trench until his stomach was covered with dust. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was reciting (poetry): “By Allah! If Allah had not guided us, we would not have been guided, nor given charity, nor prayed. So send down tranquility upon us, and make our feet firm when we meet (the enemies), for indeed they have transgressed against us. When they sought to cause us discord, we refused, we refused.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would raise his voice at the words: “We refused, we refused.” Agreed upon.
