It is narrated from Hazrat Sa’d bin Al-Mundhir that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, set out towards Uhud. When he, peace and blessings be upon him, crossed Thaniyyat al-Wada’, he, peace and blessings be upon him, saw a harsh-faced army behind him. He, peace and blessings be upon him, asked,“Who are these people?”The people replied,“Abdullah bin Ubayy bin Salul and his Jewish supporters.”He, peace and blessings be upon him, asked,“Have they accepted Islam?”The people said,“No! Rather, they remain upon their own religion.”He, peace and blessings be upon him, said,“Tell them to go back, for we do not seek help from polytheists against polytheists.”
