[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out on expeditions and encountered the polytheists at Usfan. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed Dhuhr prayer, they saw him bowing and prostrating, as well as his companions. Some of them said to others, "This is an opportunity for you to deceive them so they do not know who you are until you attack them." One of them said, "They have another prayer that is more beloved to them than their families and wealth. Prepare yourselves until you attack them during that prayer." So Allah, the Almighty and Glorious, revealed to His Prophet ﷺ from {And when you are among them and lead them in prayer} until the end of the verse, and He informed him of what the polytheists planned. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed Asr prayer and the Muslims were facing him in the direction of the Qibla, the Prophet ﷺ placed the Muslims behind him in two rows, and he said the takbeer, so they also said it with him. He mentioned the prayer during times of fear and at the end of it, when the polytheists looked at him, some of them prostrated while others stood and looked at them. They said, "They have been informed of what we intended."  

«خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَلَقِيَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ بِعُسْفَانَ فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الظُّهْرَ فَرَأَوْهُ يَرْكَعُ وَيَسْجُدُ هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ» فَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ لِبَعْضٍ كَانَ هَذِهِ فِرْصَةً لَكُمْ لَوْ أَغَرْتُمْ عَلَيْهِمْ مَا عَلِمُوا بِكُمْ حَتَّى تُوَاقِعُوهُمْ فَقَالَ قَائِلٌ مِنْهُمْ فَإِنَّ لَهُمْ صَلَاةً أُخْرَى هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ مِنْ أَهْلِيهِمْ وَأَمْوَالِهِمْ فَاسْتَعِدِّوا حَتَّى تُغِيرُوا عَلَيْهِمْ فِيهَا فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ عَلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ {وَإِذَا كُنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَأَقَمْتَ لَهُمُ الصَّلَاةَ} [النساء 102] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةَ وَأَعْلَمَهُ مَا ائْتَمَرَ بِهِ الْمُشْرِكُونَ «فَلَمَّا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْعَصْرَ وَكَانُوا قِبَالَتَهُ فِي الْقِبْلَةِ جَعَلَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ خَلْفَهُ صَفَّيْنِ فَكَبَّرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَبِّرُوا مَعَهُ» فَذَكَرَ صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ فَلَمَّا نَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ الْمُشْرِكُونَ يَسْجُدُ بَعْضُهُمْ وَيَقُومُ بَعْضُهُمْ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالُوا لَقَدْ أُخْبِرُوا بِمَا أَرَدْنَاهُ
