4589. Narrated Zaid bin Thâbit رضي الله عنه: regarding the Verse – “Then what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites?” (V.4:88): Some of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ returned from the battle of Uhud (i.e., refused to fight) whereupon the Muslims got divided into two parties; one of them was in favour of their execution (killing) and the other was not in favour of it. So, there was revealed: ‘Then what is the matter with you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites?’ (V.4:88) Then the Prophet ﷺ said, “It (i.e., Al-Madina) is Tayyibah (good), it expels impurities as the fire expels the impurities of silver.”

4589 - حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالاَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: {فَمَا لَكُمْ فِي المُنَافِقِينَ فِئَتَيْنِ} [النساء: 88] رَجَعَ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ أُحُدٍ، وَكَانَ النَّاسُ فِيهِمْ فِرْقَتَيْنِ: فَرِيقٌ يَقُولُ: اقْتُلْهُمْ، وَفَرِيقٌ يَقُولُ: لاَ، فَنَزَلَتْ: {فَمَا لَكُمْ فِي المُنَافِقِينَ فِئَتَيْنِ} [النساء: 88] وَقَالَ: «إِنَّهَا طَيْبَةُ تَنْفِي الخَبَثَ كَمَا تَنْفِي النَّارُ خَبَثَ الفِضَّةِ»
