حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ قُرَّةَ ، عَنْ عَائِذِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو : " أَنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ أَتَى عَلَى سَلْمَانَ وَصُهَيْبٍ ، وَبِلَالٍ فِي نَفَرٍ ، فَقَالُوا : وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخَذَتْ سُيُوفُ اللَّهِ مِنْ عُنُقِ عَدُوِّ اللَّهِ مَأْخَذَهَا ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : أَتَقُولُونَ هَذَا لِشَيْخِ قُرَيْشٍ وَسَيِّدِهِمْ ؟ فَأَتَى النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ : لَعَلَّكَ أَغْضَبْتَهُمْ لَئِنْ كُنْتَ أَغْضَبْتَهُمْ لَقَدْ أَغْضَبْتَ رَبَّكَ ، فَأَتَاهُمْ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، فَقَالَ : يَا إِخْوَتَاهْ أَغْضَبْتُكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا : لَا ، يَغْفِرُ اللَّهُ لَكَ يَا أَخِي " .
'A'idh bin Amr reported that Abu Sufyan (RA) came to Salman, Suhaib and Bilal (RA) in the presence of a group of persons. They said: By Allah, the sword of Allah did not reach the neck of the enemy of Allah as it was required to reach. Thereupon Abu Bakr (RA) said: Do you say this to the old man of the Quraish and their chief? Then he came to Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) (may peace be upon'him) and informed him of this. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Abu Bakr, you have perhaps annoyed them and if you annoyed them you have in fact annoyed your Lord. So Abu Bakr (RA) came to them and said: O my brothers, I have annoyed you. They said: No, our brother, may Allah forgive you
Hadith 2505
حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاق بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لِإِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَا : أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : " فِينَا نَزَلَتْ : إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلا وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا سورة آل عمران آية 122 بَنُو سَلِمَةَ ، وَبَنُو حَارِثَةَ ، وَمَا نُحِبُّ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَنْزِلْ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ : وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا سورة آل عمران آية 122 " .
Jabir bin 'Abdullah (RA) reported that it was concerning them (the Ansar) that this verse was revealed, that when the two groups amongst you were about to lose heart and Allah was the Guardian of them both. This concerned Banu Salama and Banu Haritha and we did not like that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, should not have revealed this verse for the fact that Allah (gave an assurance) of being the Guardian of both.
