Why Some Companions Left Their Posts on the Hill

Nonetheless, regardless of the Holy Prophet’s (sa) directions, a lot of the Companions stationed upon the hill left their put up, inflicting the Muslims to endure nice loss. Upon seeing the disbelievers flee, the Muslims went after them, and of their hastiness, regardless of calls to not, many archers on the hill additionally went after the disbelievers. Many historians have commented that the hastiness of those Companions was resulting from their want to acquire the spoils of warfare. Nonetheless, it doesn’t appear correct to say this concerning the Companions of the Holy Prophet (sa).
His Holiness (aba) has stated that some historians have primarily based this assertion upon their understanding of the next verse of the Holy Qur’an:
‘And Allah had absolutely made good to you His promise whenever you have been slaying and destroying them by His depart, till, whenever you turned lax and disagreed amongst yourselves regarding the order and also you disobeyed after He had proven you that which you really liked, He withdrew His assist. Amongst you have been those that desired the current world, and amongst you have been those that desired the following.

Finally, many Muslims have been martyred what was as soon as a victory became tragedy. Upon this assault by the Makkans, the Muslims have been utterly scattered and unorganised. They weren’t in any kind of formal rank and so a frantic scene ensued as they tried to fend off the Makkan offensive. Within the flurry, Hazrat Hudhaifah’s (ra) father was unintentionally martyred by the hands of Muslims, as they didn’t recognise him. Upon studying of this, the Holy Prophet (sa) desired for the blood cash to be supplied, nonetheless, Hazrat Hudhaifah (ra) insisted that he didn’t want to take the blood cash, thus elevating his rank within the sight of God and His Messenger (sa).

Thus, a robust pillar of the Muslim military was shattered. When the Holy Prophet (sa) was knowledgeable that Hamzah (ra) had been slain, he was deeply saddened. There’s a narration that after the Ghazwah of Ta’if, when the murderer of Hamzah (ra) got here earlier than the Holy Prophet (sa), though he forgave him, resulting from his love for Hamzah (ra), he instructed that Wahshi mustn’t come earlier than him. On that event, Wahshi resolved in his coronary heart that till he used the identical hand by which he martyred the paternal uncle of the Messenger of God, to slay a terrific enemy of Islam, he wouldn’t relaxation. As such, within the Khilafat of Hazrat Abu Bakr (ra), within the Battle of Yamamah, he fulfilled this vow by slaying Musailimah Kadhdhab, a false claimant of prophethood.’
