Volume 6, Book 60, Number 404:
Narrated Said bin Jubair:
I asked Ibn Abbas about Surat Al-Tauba, and he said, “Surat Al-Tauba? It is exposure (of all the
evils of the infidels and the hypocrites). And it continued revealing (that the oft-repeated
expression): ‘…and of them …and of them.’ till they started thinking that none would be left unmen –
tioned therein.” I said, “What about) Surat Al-Anfal?” He replied, “Surat Al-Anfal was revealed in
connection with the Badr Battle.” I said, “(What about) Surat Al-Hashr?” He replied, “It was revealed
in connection with Bani an-Nadir.”
