[Machine] I advised the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, on the day of Badr with two suggestions, and he accepted them from me. I accompanied the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, in the Battle of Badr, and the camp was set up behind the water. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, did you do this based on divine inspiration or your own opinion?" He replied, "Based on my own opinion, O beloved one." I said, "In my opinion, you should place the water behind you, so if you are forced to retreat, you can retreat towards it." He accepted my suggestion. This hadith is considered weak in its chain of narrators.  

أَشَرْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ بِخَصْلَتَيْنِ فَقَبِلَهُمَا مِنِّي خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةِ بَدْرٍ فَعَسْكَرَ خَلْفَ الْمَاءِ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَبِوَحْيٍ فَعَلْتَ أَوْ بِرَأْيٍ؟ قَالَ بِرَأْيٍ يَا حُبَابُ قُلْتُ فَإِنَّ الرَّأْيَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ الْمَاءَ خَلْفَكَ فَإِنْ لَجَأْتَ لَجَأْتَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَبِلَ ذَلِكَ مِنِّي حديث منكر وسنده
