‘A-‘uu-zu Billaahi minash-Shay-taanir- Rajiim.

from Satan the outcast)

(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
Bis-Millaahir-Rah-maanir-Rahiim.
(In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful)
وَإِذْ قَالَت طَّآئِفَةٌ مِّنْهُمْ يَٰٓأَهْلَ يَثْرِبَ لَا مُقَامَ لَكُمْ فَٱرْجِعُوا۟ وَيَسْتَـْٔذِنُ فَرِيقٌ مِّنْهُمُ ٱلنَّبِىَّ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ بُيُوتَنَا عَوْرَةٌ وَمَا هِىَ بِعَوْرَةٍ إِن يُرِيدُونَ إِلَّا فِرَارًا 13
13. And when a party of
them said: O folk of Yathrib! There is no stand (possible) for you,
therefore turn back. And certain of them (even) sought permission of the
Prophet, saying: Our homes lie open (to the enemy); and they lay not open.
They but wished to flee.

Commentary
‘Awratun – (unprotected), according to Arabic
language, it aims -such thing which has been surrounded by dangers and there is
none who may save it.
Yasriba – it was a name of Madinah before
departure of the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) from
Makkah. When he (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) and his
Companions (May Allaah be pleased with them) reached there, then it was
named “Madinatun-Nabii”. After simplification it was called “Madinah”.
During the times of misfortunes, some people who used to say
themselves Muslims, but still the Belief had not influenced their hearts so far,
they began to mislead other Muslims and frightened them by saying: O people of Yathrib!
Do you observe the present circumstances? Entire people of Arab have assaulted
upon us collectively. The Treaty of peace has broken which the tribe of Banu
Qurayzah had made with us. What is advantage of it if we lie on this side
of the Ditch before this great multitude of Arab for a long time?
It is commanded: They said: O inhabitants of Yathrib! Now
our stay at this place is useless. Consequence of staying here is very obvious.
Let us return to our homes.
Some active men of them reached the Messenger (grace, glory,
blessings and peace be upon him) and requested: Indeed,
our houses in the Township are lying opened and unprotected. We don’t know what
will happen. Give us permission to go back in the Township so that we may
arrange to save our houses.
It is commanded: It all was their pretence of running
away from the Battle Field. In fact, there was no danger for their houses or the
Township.
The Commentators have explained that several
men had run away after getting permission like this. Only some brave men who
had strong belief, remained with the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings
and peace be upon him).
