The Condition of the Muslims After the Battle of Uhud and the Commands:
This verse was revealed during the period when the Muslims had once faced defeat in the field of Uhud, and Abu Sufyan, upon his return, had announced his victory in his address. The effect of this was that the courage of the Jews, hypocrites, and the tribes surrounding Madinah increased, and they intensified their efforts in enmity against Islam. Often, such news would come that a certain tribe was preparing for war, or that another tribe was advancing towards Madinah to attack the Muslims. During this period, repeated acts of treachery were committed against the Muslims. Their preachers would be deceitfully invited and then killed, and outside the boundaries of Madinah, the lives and property of Muslims were not safe. A constant state of fear and terror prevailed over Madinah. In these circumstances, Allah Almighty instructed the Muslims, firstly, to always remain cautious and alert, and to keep their weapons with them. Secondly, not to travel alone, but whenever setting out on a journey, to go in groups or all together.
