Zayd bin Arqam reported,

We set out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a journey, and the people were struck by hardship. Abdullah bin Ubayy said to his companions, "Do not spend on those who are with the Messenger of Allah until they disperse from around him." He also said, "If we return to Medina, the mightier will surely expel the weaker from it."So I came to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him of this. He sent for Abdullah bin Ubayy and questioned him, but he swore emphatically that he had not done so. They said, "Zayd has lied to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."Zayd said, "What they said weighed heavily upon me, until Allah عز وجل revealed confirmation of my truthfulness in 'When the hypocrites come to you' [Munafiqun 63:1]."He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ called them so that he might seek forgiveness for them, but they turned their heads away."Regarding the words of the Most High, "As if they were propped-up pieces of timber" [Munafiqun 63:4], he said, "They were some men of the most handsome appearance."

حدثنا حسن بن موسى حدثنا زهير حدثنا أبو إسحاق أنه سمع

زيد بن أرقم يقول

خرجنا مع رسول الله ﷺ في سفر فأصاب الناس شدة فقال عبد الله بن أبي لأصحابه لا تنفقوا على من عند رسول الله حتى ينفضوا من حوله وقال لئن رجعنا إلى المدينة ليخرجن الأعز منها الأذل فأتيت النبي ﷺ فأخبرته بذلك فأرسل إلى عبد الله بن أبي فسأله فاجتهد يمينه ما فعل فقالوا كذب زيدا رسول الله ﷺ قال فوقع في نفسي مما قالوا حتى أنزل الله عز وجل تصديقي في {إذا جاءك المنافقون} قال ودعاهم رسول الله ﷺ ليستغفر لهم فلووا رءوسهم وقوله تعالى {كأنهم خشب مسندة} قال كانوا رجالا أجمل شيء
