English translation
6620. Narrated Al-Barā' bin 'Azīb: I saw the Prophet ﷺ on the Day of (the battle of) Al-Khandaq, carrying earth with us and saying: "By Allāh, without Allāh we would not have been guided, Neither would we have observed fasting,Nor would we have offered Ṣalāt (prayer). O Allāh! Send down Sakīna (calmness and tranquillity, etc.) upon us And make our feet firm when we meet (the enemy). Al-Mushrikūn have rebelled against us, But if they want to put us in Al-Fitnah (i.e., fight us) we will refuse (to flee)." [See Vol. 5, Ḥadīth No. 4104] (1) (Ch. 16) 'Al-Muttaqūn' means pious and righteous persons who fear Allāh much (abstain from all kinds of sins and evil deeds which He has forbidden) and love Allāh much (perform all kinds of good deeds which He has ordained).
