1689. Ibn 'Umar narrated: "Indeed we saw the Day of Hunain, and indeed the two armies fled from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and there did not remain one hundred men with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ." (Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb as a narration of 'Ubaidullāh. We do not know of it except from this route.
١٦٨٩ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ حُسَيْنٍ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: «لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنَا يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ» وَإِنَّ الْفِئَتَيْنِ لَمُوَلِّيَتَيْنِ، وَمَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِائَةُ رَجُلٍ هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ. لَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

Initially, at the battle of Hunain, fighters from both groups - the Ansārs (Helpers) and Muhājirs (Emigrants) had fled the battle field. The Prophet's exemplary courage and fortitude, however, gave them the courage once again, and slowly but surely they returned and joined back the battle. It is reported on the authority of 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd ؓ that there were eighty Emigrants with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ on that occasion. (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhī, v.3, p.26)
