Commentary
Three of the Prophet's Companions, Ka'b bin Mâlik, Murârah bin Rabî and Hîlâl bin Umayyah ﷺ, lagged behind the Islamic army on the occasion of the Tabuk military campaign, for no valid reason. Therefore, on Allâh's command, the entire Muslim community observed a social boycott of these three for fifty days. During this long long period, these three remained mentally distressed and kept offering their repentance before Allâh.. Finally, when after fifty days, Allâh accepted their repentance, the Prophet of Allâh ﷺ declared it as the happiest day of their lives.
