[Machine] The leaders of the Quraysh passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with some Muslims and Suhayb and Khabbab. They said, "O Muhammad, are these the ones whom Allah has favored among us? If you were to expel them, we would follow you." So Allah revealed, "And do not send away those who call upon their Lord morning and afternoon, seeking His countenance. Not upon you is anything of their account or upon them anything of your account. So were you to send them away, you would [then] be of the wrongdoers." (Quran, 6:52)
مَرَّ الْمَلَأُ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدَهُ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَصُهَيْبٌ وَخَبَّابٌ فَقَالُوا يَا مُحَمَّدُ أَهَؤُلَاءِ مَنَّ اللهُ عَلَيْهِمْ مِنْ بَيْنِنَا؟ لَوْ طَرَدْتَ هَؤُلَاءِ لَاتَّبَعْنَاكَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ ﷻ {وَلَا تَطْرُدِ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهَمْ بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُ} إِلَى قَوْلِهِ {أَلَيْسَ اللهُ بِأَعْلَمَ بِالشَّاكِرِينَ}
