It is narrated from Hazrat Hudhaifah bin Yaman (may Allah be pleased with him) that nothing prevented me from participating in the Battle of Badr. In fact, I set out with my father Husail, but on the way, the disbelievers of Quraysh captured us and said, "Are you going to Muhammad (peace be upon him)?" We said, "Our intention is only to go to Madinah Munawwarah." They took a promise and a strong oath from us that after reaching Madinah, we would not support him in battle. We reached the service of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) and informed him of the entire matter. The Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Both of you return; we will fulfill their promise and seek help from Allah against them."
