The day of Bu'ath was a day (i.e. battle) which Allah caused to take place just before the mission of His Apostle so that when Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to Medina, they (the tribes) had divided (into hostile groups) and their nobles had been killed; and all that facilitated their conversion to Islam.
كَانَ يَوْمُ بُعَاثٍ يَوْمًا قَدَّمَهُ اللَّهُ ﷻ لِرَسُولِهِ ﷺ فَقَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ وَقَدِ افْتَرَقَ مَلَؤُهُمْ وَقُتِلَتْ سَرَاتُهُمْ فِي دُخُولِهِمْ فِي الإِسْلاَمِ
