Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:
The Verse:–“When two parties from among you were about to lose heart, but Allah was their
Protector,” (3.122) was revealed concerning us, and we were the two parties, i.e. Banu Haritha and
Banu Salama, and we do not wish (that it had not been revealed) or I would not have been pleased (if
it had not been revealed), for Allah says:–“…Allah was their Protector.”
حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ قَالَ عَمْرٌو سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّه ِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ يَقُولُ فِينَا نَزَلَتْ [quran sura=”3″ aya_start=”122″ aya_end=”122″]{إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا} قَالَ نَحْنُ الطَّائِفَتَانِ بَنُو حَارِثَةَ وَبَنُو سَلِمَةَ، وَمَا نُحِبُّ ـ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً وَمَا يَسُرُّنِي ـ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تُنْزَلْ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ [quran sura=”3″ aya_start=”122″ aya_end=”122″]{وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا}
