Hadith 1290

1290 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرٌو، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، يَقُولُ: «فِينَا نَزَلَتْ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ وَبَنِي سَلِمَةَ» ﴿ إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلَا﴾ ، «وَمَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَنْزِلُ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ» : ﴿ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا﴾
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: This verse was revealed about us, that is, about Banu Haritha and Banu Salama. «إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلا» (3-Aal Imran:122) "When two groups among you were about to lose heart." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I do not like this, that this verse had not been revealed, because Allah Almighty has said: «وَاللهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا» (3-Aal Imran:122) "Allah is their Protector (Supporter and Helper)."

In this hadith, the context of revelation (shan-e-nuzul) of the verse ﴿إِذْ هَمَّت طَّائِفَتَانِ مِنكُمْ أَن تَفْشَلَ﴾ [آل عمران:122] is explained: that when, during the Battle of Uhud, these two tribes became disheartened upon seeing the hypocrite Abdullah bin Ubayy turn back, and they too intended to return, at that moment this verse was revealed.
