It is narrated from Hazrat Hudhaifah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave us many examples—one, three, five, seven, nine, eleven—and he explained one of them to us and remained silent about the rest. Thus he said: Indeed, there were some people who were weak and destitute, so they fought with people of strategy and swiftness. The people of strategy prevailed over them, put them to work, and became dominant over them. Thus, they made their Lord angry with them.
