I saw Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day (of the battle) of the Trench carrying earth till the hair of his chest were covered with dust and he was a hairy man. He was reciting the following verses of ʿAbdullah (bin Rawaha): "O Allah, were it not for You, We would not have been guided, Nor would we have given in charity, nor prayed. So, bestow on us calmness, and when we meet the enemy. Then make our feet firm, for indeed, Yet if they want to put us in affliction, (i.e. want to fight against us) we would not (flee but withstand them)." The Prophet ﷺ used to raise his voice while reciting these verses. (See Hadith No. 432, Vol. 5).  

رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ وَهُوَ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ حَتَّى وَارَى التُّرَابُ شَعَرَ صَدْرِهِ وَكَانَ رَجُلاً كَثِيرَ الشَّعَرِ وَهْوَ يَرْتَجِزُ بِرَجَزِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ اللَّهُمَّ لَوْلاَ أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلاَ تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلاَ صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لاَقَيْنَا إِنَّ الأَعْدَاءَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ  

On the day (of the battle) of Al-Ahzab (i.e. clans) I saw the Prophet ﷺ carrying earth, and the earth was covering the whiteness of his ʿAbdomen. And he was saying, "Without You (O Allah!) we would have got no guidance, nor given in charity, nor prayed. So please bless us with tranquility and make firm our feet when we meet our enemies. Indeed (these) people have rebelled against (oppressed) us but never shall we yield if they try to bring affliction upon us."  

رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الأَحْزَابِ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ وَقَدْ وَارَى التُّرَابُ بَيَاضَ بَطْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَوْلاَ أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلاَ تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلاَ صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلِ السَّكِينَةَ عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لاَقَيْنَا إِنَّ الأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا  

The Prophet ﷺ was carrying earth on the day of Al-Khandaq till his ʿAbdomen was fully covered with dust, and he was saying, "By Allah, without Allah we would not have been guided, neither would we have given in charity, nor would we have prayed. So (O Allah), please send Sakina (i.e. calmness) upon us, and make our feet firm if we meet the enemy as the enemy have rebelled against us, and if they intended affliction, (i.e. want to frighten us and fight against us then we would not flee but withstand them)." The Prophet ﷺ used to raise his voice saying, "Abaina! Abaina! (i.e. would not, we would not).  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ حَتَّى أَغْمَرَ بَطْنَهُ أَوِ اغْبَرَّ بَطْنُهُ يَقُولُ وَاللَّهِ لَوْلاَ اللَّهُ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلاَ تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلاَ صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لاَقَيْنَا إِنَّ الأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا وَرَفَعَ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ أَبَيْنَا أَبَيْنَا  

The Prophet ﷺ was carrying earth with us on the day of the battle of Al-Ahzab (confederates) and I saw that the dust was covering the whiteness of his ʿAbdomen, and he (the Prophet ﷺ ) was saying, "(O Allah) ! Without You, we would not have been guided, nor would we have given in charity, nor would we have prayed. So (O Allah!) please send tranquility (Sakina) upon us as they, (the chiefs of the enemy tribes) have rebelled against us. And if they intend affliction (i.e. want to frighten us and fight against us) then we would not (flee but withstand them). And the Prophet ﷺ used to raise his voice with it. (See Hadith No. 430 and 432, Vol. 5)  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ مَعَنَا التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الأَحْزَابِ وَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ وَارَى التُّرَابُ بَيَاضَ بَطْنِهِ يَقُولُ لَوْلاَ أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا نَحْنُ وَلاَ تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلاَ صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّ الأُلَى وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ الْمَلاَ قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا أَبَيْنَا يَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was carrying the earth with us on the Day of Ahzab and the whiteness of his belly had been covered with earth. (While engaged in this toil) he was reciting: By God, if Thou hadst not guided us We would have neither been guided aright nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers. Descend on us peace and tranquillity. Behold I these people (the Meccans) refused to follow us. According to another version, he recited: The chieftains (of the tribes) refused to follow us When they contemplated mischief, we rejected it. And with this (verse) he would raise his voice. (Using translation from Muslim 1803a)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ مَعَنَا التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ وَيَقُولُ اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا يَمُدُّ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ

(While engaged in this toil) he was reciting: By God, if Thou hadst not guided us We would have neither been guided aright nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers.

(Using translation from Muslim 1803a)  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ يَنْقُلُ مَعَنَا التُّرَابَ وَلَقَدْ وَارَى التُّرَابُ بَيَاضَ بَطْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ إِنَّ الْمَلَا قَدْ أبَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا وَيَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ  

[Machine] I saw the Prophet ﷺ moving from the sand of the trench until he could see the dirt on his abdomen, and he was saying the words of Abdullah bin Rawaha. O Allah, if it weren't for You, we wouldn't have been guided, given charity, or prayed. Send down tranquility upon us and make our steps steadfast if we encounter our enemies. Indeed, the highest group has transgressed against us, and if they intend to cause us turmoil, we refuse.  

رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ مِنْ تُرَابِ الْخَنْدَقِ حَتَّى وَارَى التُّرَابُ جِلْدَ بَطْنِهِ وَهُوَ يَرْتَجِزُ بِكَلِمَةِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ [البحر الرجز]اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَافَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَاإِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِنْ أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا

(While engaged in this toil) he was reciting: By God, if Thou hadst not guided us We would have neither been guided aright nor practised charity, Nor offered prayers.

(Using translation from Muslim 1803a)   

سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَنْقُلُ مَعَنَا التُّرَابَ يَوْمَ الْأَحْزَابِ وَقَدْ وَارَى التُّرَابُ بَيَاضَ إِبِطَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «اللَّهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنَّ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا وَثَبِّتِ الْأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا وَإِنْ أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا» وَيَرْفَعُ بِهَا صَوْتَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to dig the trench and the dirt would reach his stomach while he was saying, "O Allah, if it were not for You, we would not have been guided, nor given in charity, nor prayed. So, send down tranquility upon us. Verily, the enemies have rebelled against us when they wanted to create discord among us."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَحْفِرُ مَعَنَا الْخَنْدَقَ وَالتُّرَابُ قَدْ عَلَا بَطْنَهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «اللهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا إِنَّ الْأُلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا إِذَا أَرَادُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا»  

"عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ يَنْقُلُ التُّرَابَ حَتَّى وَارى التُّرَابُ شعْرَ صَدْرِهِ وَهُوَ يَرْتَجِزُ بِرَجَزِ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ رَوَاحَةَ، يَقُولُ: الَّلهُمَّ لَوْلَا أَنْتَ مَا اهْتَدَيْنَا، وَلَا تَصَدَّقْنَا وَلَا صَلَّيْنَا، فَأَنْزِلَنْ سَكِينَةً عَلَيْنَا، وَثَبِّتِ الأَقْدَامَ إِنْ لَاقَيْنَا، إِنَّ الأُوْلَى قَدْ بَغَوْا عَلَيْنَا، وِإنْ أَرَدُوا فِتْنَةً أَبَيْنَا".
