bukhari:4197ʿAbdullāh b. Yūsuf > Mālik > Ḥumayd al-Ṭawīl > Anas

Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached Khaibar at night and it was his habit that, whenever he reached the enemy at night, he will not attack them till it was morning. When it was morning, the Jews came out with their spades and baskets, and when they saw him(i.e. the Prophet ﷺ ), they said, "Muhammad! By Allah! Muhammad and his army!" The Prophet ﷺ said, "Khaibar is destroyed, for whenever we approach a (hostile) nation (to fight), then evil will be the morning for those who have been warned."  

البخاري:٤١٩٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الطَّوِيلِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَتَى خَيْبَرَ لَيْلاً وَكَانَ إِذَا أَتَى قَوْمًا بِلَيْلٍ لَمْ يُغِرْ بِهِمْ حَتَّى يُصْبِحَ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ خَرَجَتِ الْيَهُودُ بِمَسَاحِيهِمْ وَمَكَاتِلِهِمْ فَلَمَّا رَأَوْهُ قَالُوا مُحَمَّدٌ وَاللَّهِ مُحَمَّدٌ وَالْخَمِيسُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَرِبَتْ خَيْبَرُ إِنَّا إِذَا نَزَلْنَا بِسَاحَةِ قَوْمٍ فَسَاءَ صَبَاحُ الْمُنْذَرِينَ

The Prophet ﷺ set out for Khaibar and reached it at night. He used not to attack if he reached the people at night, till the day broke. So, when the day dawned, the Jews came out with their bags and spades. When they saw the Prophet; they said, "Muhammad and his army!" The Prophet ﷺ said, Allahu--Akbar! (Allah is Greater) and Khaibar is ruined, for whenever we approach a nation (i.e. enemy to fight) then it will be a miserable morning for 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.'"

Yahya related to me from Malik from Humayd at-Tawil from Anas ibn Malik that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out to Khaybar, he arrived there at night, and when he came upon a people by night, he did not attack until morning. In the morning, the jews came out with their spades and baskets. When they saw him, they said, "Muhammad! By Allah, Muhammad and his army!" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said "Allah is greater! Khaybar is destroyed. When we come to a people, it is an evil morning for those who have been warned . "

[Machine] I heard Anas ibn Malik saying, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ attacked Khaybar in the morning, while they had already gone out for their work in the fields. When they saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, they said, 'Muhammad and the group have come.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands and said, 'Allahu Akbar (Allah is the Greatest)! Khaybar is destroyed. Whenever we descend upon a nation's territory, then the morning of those who are warned will be severe.'"

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , when he attacked Khaybar, they had taken their water skins and ropes and had gone out to their fields in the morning. When they saw the Prophet of Allah, ﷺ , with his army, they turned and fled. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Allahu Akbar! Khaybar is ruined. When we descend upon a people's land, it is a bad morning for the warning ones."
