Ibn Jurayj (may Allah have mercy on him) said that the verse: "O you who believe, obey Allah and obey the Messenger and those in authority among you" [Surah al-Nisa: 59] was revealed about Abdullah bin Hudhafah bin Qays bin Adi al-Sahmi (may Allah be pleased with him), whom the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had sent on a military detachment.
