[Machine] He said, "Hudhayfah and his father were both present on the day of Badr, and Abu Jahl and his companions met them. They said to them, 'Perhaps you two are supporting Muhammad?' They replied, 'No.' He said, 'Then they made us promise not to help Muhammad against them.' When we met the Prophet, ﷺ , we informed him of this and said, 'O Prophet of Allah, the people pledged allegiance against us, but if you command us to fight with you, we will do so.' He said, 'No, we rely on Allah and we deny them.'"
أَنَّهُ أَقْبَلَ حُذَيْفَةُ وَأَبُوهُ يَوْمَ بَدْرٍ فَلَقِيَهُمْ أَبُو جَهْلٍ وَأَصْحَابُهُ فَقَالُوا لَهُمَا لَعَلَّكُما تُرِيدَانِ مُحَمَّدًا قَالَا قُلْنَا لَا قَالَ فَأَخَذَ عَلَيْنَا أَنْ لَا نُعِينَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَلَمَّا أَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ وَقُلْنَا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ قَدْ أَخَذُوا عَلَيْنَا وَإِنْ أَمَرْتَنَا أَنْ نُقَاتِلَ مَعَكَ فَعَلْنَا فَقَالَ «بَلْ نَسْتَعِينُ اللهَ وَنَفِي لَهُمْ»
