It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once we were participating in a jihad. During the battle, we became frightened and began to flee. At first, we intended to go on a sea journey, then we presented ourselves before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and we said, "O Messenger of Allah! We are those who have fled and run away." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather you are those who turn back and attack."
