[Machine] That the people of Ri'l, Dhakwan, 'Usayyah, and Bani Lihyan sought help from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ against an enemy, so he provided them with seventy Ansar (helpers). We used to call them "Al-Qurra" during their time. They used to store provisions during the day and pray at night. However, when they reached the well of Ma'unah, they were killed and betrayed. When the Prophet ﷺ was informed of this, he observed a month of prayer at the Fajr (Dawn) prayer for the martyrs from the people of Ri'l, Dhakwan, 'Usayyah, and Bani Lihyan. Anas said, "We recited the Quran with them, and then it was lifted." (Convey our message to our people that we have met our Lord and He is pleased with us and has accepted us.)
