[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ traveled to Khaibar and arrived there at night. He mentioned that whenever the Prophet ﷺ approached a place at night, the people there would not be disturbed until morning. If he heard the call to prayer, he would stop, but if the people were not praying, he would become angry with them. When morning came, he and the Muslims mounted their rides. The people of the village came out with their ropes and tools. When they saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Muslims, they said, "By Allah and Al-Khamis, this is Muhammad!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed. Whenever we approach the land of a people, the morning is a bad time for those who are warned." Anas ibn Malik said, "I was by the side of Abu Talha, and indeed my foot touched the foot of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ .

Anas bin Malik said, "Whenever the Prophet ﷺ went out with us to fight (in Allah's cause) against any nation, he never allowed us to attack till morning and he would wait and see: if he heard Adhan he would postpone the attack and if he did not hear Adhan he would attack them." Anas added, "We reached Khaibar at night and in the morning when he did not hear the Adhan for the prayer, he (the Prophet ) rode and I rode behind Abi Talha and my foot was touching that of the Prophet. The inhabitants of Khaibar came out with their baskets and spades and when they saw the Prophet ﷺ they shouted 'Muhammad! By Allah, Muhammad and his army.' When Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw them, he said, "Allahu-Akbar! Allahu-Akbar! Khaibar is ruined. Whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning of those who have been warned."

"When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out for Khaibar, he approached it at night and when he came to a people during the night, he would not attack them until morning. So when the morning came, the Jews came out with their shovels and baskets, then when they saw him, they said: 'Muhammad! By Allah Muhammad has come with the Khamis (an army).' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Allahu Akbar! Khaibar is destroyed, for whenever we approach the land of people - then what an evil morning for those who have been warned.'"

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ headed towards Khaibar and we reached there at night. When we woke up in the morning, he mounted his ride and the Muslims mounted theirs. I rode behind Abu Talha and my feet touched the feet of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . The people of Khaibar came out with their crops and goods. When they saw the Prophet ﷺ and the Muslims, they turned back hastily and said, "Muhammad and his army have come!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Allah is the Greatest! Khaibar is destroyed. When we descend upon the people's land, it'll be an evil morning for those who were warned." (Surah As-Saffat 37:177)

When we come to the territory of a people, it is a bad morning for the warners." Anas said, "I was behind Abu Talha, and indeed my foot was touching the foot of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ."
