We were six men in the company of Messenger of Allah (, nay peace be upon him) that the polytheists said to Allah's Apostle ﷺ: Drive them away so that they may not be overbold upon us. He said: I, Ibn Mas'ud and a person from the tribe of Hudhail, Bilal and two other persons, whose names I do not know (were amongst such persons). And there occurred to Messenger of Allah ﷺ what. Allah wished and he talked with himself that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed:" Do not drive away those who call their Lord morning and evening desiring to seek His pleasure." (Using translation from Muslim 2413b)
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ سِتَّةُ نَفَرٍ فَقَالَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ اطْرُدْ هَؤُلَاءِ عَنْكَ فَإِنَّهُمْ وَإِنَّهُمْ قَالَ وَكُنْتُ أَنَا وَابْنُ مَسْعُودٍ وَرَجُلٌ مِنْ هُذَيْلٍ وَبِلَالٌ وَرَجُلَانِ نَسِيتُ أَسْمَاءَهُمَا قَالَ «فَوَقَعَ فِي يَعْنِي نَفْسِهِ مَا شَاءَ اللهُ وَحَدَّثَ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ» فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَلَا تَطْرُدِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُمْ بِالْغَدَاةِ} [الأنعام 52] وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى {الظَّالِمِينَ} [الأنعام 52]
