[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to move his lips with something that could not be understood, so we said, "O Messenger of Allah, you move your lips with something that cannot be understood." He said, "One of the prophets was amazed by the abundance of his people, so he said, 'Who will provide for these people or stand up for them?' It was said to him, 'Choose between your companions that we inflict upon them an enemy who would kill them, or famine, or death.' So he gave them the choice and they chose death. Some of them died within three days, seventy thousand in total. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'And I say, O Allah, with You I fight, with You I strive, and with You I undertake, and there is no power or strength except with You, and all the supplications that have been mentioned before in this are mentioned in the Book of Hajj and the Book of Invocations.'"
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْهِ بِشَيْءٍ لَا يُفْهَمُ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ تُحَرِّكُ شَفَتَيْكَ بِشَيْءٍ لَا يُفْهَمُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ نَبِيًّا مِنَ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ أَعْجَبَهُ كَثْرَةُ قَوْمِهِ فَقَالَ مَنْ يَفِي لِهَؤُلَاءِ أَوْ مَنْ يَقُومُ لِهَؤُلَاءِ؟ قَالَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ خَيِّرْ أَصْحَابَكَ بَيْنَ أَنْ نُسَلِّطَ عَلَيْهِمْ عَدُوًّا فَيَسْتَبِيحَ بَيْضَتَهُمْ أَوِ الْجُوعَ أَوِ الْمَوْتَ فَخَيَّرَهُمْ فَاخْتَارُوا الْمَوْتَ قَالَ فَمَاتَ مِنْهُمْ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ سَبْعُونَ أَلْفًا قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أَقُولُ اللهُمَّ بِكَ أُقَاتِلُ وَبِكَ أُحَاوِلُ وَبِكَ أُصَاوِلُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِكَ وَسَائِرُ مَا وَرَدَ مِنَ الدُّعَاءِ فِي هَذَا قَدْ مَضَى فِي كِتَابِ الْحَجِّ وَفِي كِتَابِ الدَّعَوَاتِ
