A man asked Al-Bara “O Abu ‘Umara! Did you flee on the day (of the battle) of Hunain?” Al-Bara
replied while I was listening, “As for Allah’s Apostle he did not flee on that day. Abu Sufyan bin Al-
Harith was holding the reins of his mule and when the pagans attacked him, he dismounted and
started saying, ‘I am the Prophet, and there is no lie about it; I am the son of ‘Abdul Muttalib.’ On that
day nobody was seen braver than the Prophet
Volume 4, Book 52, Number 181:
Narrated Abu Ishaq:
A man asked Al-Bara’, “O Abu ‘Umara! Did you all flee on the day (of the battle) of Hunain?” He
replied, “No, by Allah! Allah’s Apostle did not flee, but his young unarmed companions passed by the
archers of the tribe of Hawazin and Bani Nasr whose arrows hardly missed a target, and they threw
arrows at them hardly missing a shot. So the Muslims retreated towards the Prophet while he was
riding his white mule which was being led by his cousin Abu Sufyan bin Al-Harith bin ‘Abdul Mut –
talib. The Prophet dismounted and invoked Allah for victory; then he said, ‘I am the Prophet, without
a lie; I am the son of ‘Abdul Muttalib, and then he arranged his companions in rows.”

Somebody asked Al-Bar-a bin ‘Azib, “Did you flee deserting Allah’s Apostle during the battle of
Hunain?” Al-Bara replied, “But Allah’s Apostle did not flee. The people of the Tribe of Hawazin were
good archers. When we met them, we attacked them, and they fled. When the Muslims started col –
lecting the war booty, the pagans faced us with arrows, but Allah’s Apostle did not flee. No doubt, I
saw him on his white mule and Abu Sufyan was holding its reins and the Prophet was saying, ‘I am
the Prophet in truth: I am the son of ‘Abdul Muttalib.’ “

Narrated Abu Ishaq:
I heard Al-Bara’ saying, “The above Verse was revealed regarding us, for the Ansar on returning
from Hajj never entered their houses through the proper doors but from behind. One of the Ansar
came and entered through the door and he was taunted for it. Therefore, the following was revealed:
—
“It is not righteousness That you enter the houses from the back, But the righteous man is He who
fears Allah, Obeys His order and keeps away from What He has forbidden So, enter houses through
the proper doors.” (2.189)
