2688. Anas said: "Eighty men from the people of Makkah came down from the mountains of Tan'im to kill the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions at the time of the Fajr prayer. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ took them captive without fighting, and he freed them. Therefore, Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime revealed: 'And He it is Who has withheld their hands from you, and your hands from them in the midst of Makkah...' till the end of the Verse."[1] (Sahih)

2688 - حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ثَابِتٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ ثَمَانِينَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ مَكَّةَ هَبَطُوا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَصْحَابِهِ مِنْ جِبَالِ التَّنْعِيمِ عِنْدَ صَلَاةِ الْفَجْرِ لِيَقْتُلُوهُمْ، فَأَخَذَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سِلْمًا، " فَأَعْتَقَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ {وَهُوَ الَّذِي كَفَّ أَيْدِيَهُمْ عَنْكُمْ وَأَيْدِيَكُمْ عَنْهُمْ بِبَطْنِ مَكَّةَ} [الفتح: 24] " إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
