[Machine] 'Urwa narrated the story of the Battle of Uhud and the Prophet's indication to the Muslims to stay in Medina, and how many people refused to do anything other than go out to fight the enemy. He said, "If they had agreed to follow the words and command of the Messenger of Allah, it would have been better for them, but destiny prevailed." He said, "Most of those who were encouraged to go out were men who had not witnessed the Battle of Badr but they knew the virtue that the people of Badr had achieved. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ finished the Friday prayer, delivered his sermon, reminded and ordered the people to be diligent and strive, then he finished his sermon and prayers, he called his people and dressed them up, then he called the people to go out. When men with foresight saw this, they said, "The Messenger of Allah ordered us to stay in Medina, but if the enemy comes to us, we will fight them in the alleys, and he is more knowledgeable about Allah and what He wants, and revelation comes to him from the heavens." Then they gathered and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we stay as you commanded us?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is not appropriate for a Prophet when he has prepared his army and called the people to go out and fight, to retreat without fighting. I have called you to this talk, but you refused to do anything other than go out, so you must fear Allah and have patience when you meet the enemy, and see what I have commanded you to do, so do it." So the Messenger of Allah and the Muslims went out with him, and he narrated the hadith in this way. Musa bin 'Uqba narrated it from Az-Zuhri, and Muhammad bin Ishaq bin Yasir narrated it from his sheikhs among the people of the expeditions, and it is common among the people of the expeditions, even though it is disconnected, and we have connected it with a good chain of narrators.
