[173] It has already been mentioned that Abu Sufyan himself challenged for a confrontation in the field of Badr the year after the Battle of Uhud. But later, he lost courage himself and, in order to place the blame on the Muslims and to frighten and terrorize them, he bribed a man named Nu'aym bin Mas'ud to go to Madinah and tell the Muslims that Abu Sufyan had resolved to prepare such a massive army that it would be sufficient to face all of Arabia. In this way, the Muslims would become fearful themselves and abandon the intention of coming to Badr for the confrontation. Allah Almighty has described this whole drama as a satanic ploy. Here, "Satan" can refer to Abu Sufyan or to Nu'aym bin Mas'ud, and the Muslims are being instructed not to fear any tyrannical power besides Me.
