Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates this statement of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever goes to such and such place and does such and such action, he will receive this and that." So the young people quickly reached there while the elderly remained behind. They stayed under the banners, and when Allah Almighty granted them victory, those people came to obtain what the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had assigned for them. The elderly said to them: "You cannot take it by leaving us behind, for we were your supporters." So Allah Almighty revealed this verse regarding this: "Fear Allah and make peace among yourselves."
