English translation

4325. Narrated ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Umar(2) رضي الله عنهم: When Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ besieged Aṭ-Ṭā’if and could not conquer its people, he said, “We will return (to Al-Madīna) if Allāh will.” That distressed the Companions (of the Prophet ﷺ) and they said, “Shall we go away without conquering it (i.e., the fort of Aṭ-Ṭā’if)?” Once the Prophet ﷺ said, “Let us return.” Then the Prophet ﷺ said (to them), “Fight tomorrow.” They fought and (many of them) got wounded, whereupon the Prophet ﷺ said, “We will return (to Al-Madīna) tomorrow if Allāh will.” That delighted them, whereupon the Prophet ﷺ smiled. The subnarrator, Sufyān said once, “(The Prophet ﷺ) smiled.”

4325 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي العَبَّاسِ الشَّاعِرِ الأَعْمَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ: لَمَّا حَاصَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الطَّائِفَ، فَلَمْ يَنَلْ مِنْهُمْ شَيْئًا، قَالَ: «إِنَّا قَافِلُونَ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ». فَثَقُلَ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَقَالُوا: نَذْهَبُ وَلاَ نَفْتَحُهُ، وَقَالَ مَرَّةً: «نَقْفُلُ». فَقَالَ: «اغْدُوا عَلَى القِتَالِ». فَغَدَوْا فَأَصَابَهُمْ جِرَاحٌ، فَقَالَ: «إِنَّا قَافِلُونَ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ». فَأَعْجَبَهُمْ، فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً، فَتَبَسَّمَ، قَالَ: قَالَ الحُمَيْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ الخَبَرَ كُلَّهُ
