Utba bin Abd narrated, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave the order for battle, and a man from among his companions was struck by an arrow. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'This one has earned it.'"When he commanded them to fight, they said, "Messenger of Allah, we will not say as the Children of Israil said, 'So go, you and your Lord, and fight. We will remain sitting right here' [Maidah 5:24]. Rather, go, you and your Lord, and fight. We are with you both, fighting alongside you."
حدثني عتبة بن عبد قال: أمر رسول الله ﷺ بالقتال، فرمي رجل من أصحابه بسهم، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: أوجب هذا. وقالوا حين أمرهم بالقتال: إذا يا رسول الله لا نقول كما قالت بنو إسرائيل: {فاذهب أنت وربك فقاتلا إنا ههنا قعدون} ولكن اذهب أنت وربك فقاتلا، إنا معكما من المقاتلين.
Ahmad narrated it (17641) — and from his route, Tabarani in Al-Kabir (17/123) — and Yaqub Fasawi (2/349–350) — and Ibn Abu Asim in Al-Jihad (162), all of them through routes from Hasan bin Ayub Hadrami, from Abdullah bin Nasih Hadrami, who said, Utba bin Abd narrated to me, and then he related it. Its chain is hasan because of Hasan bin Ayub Hadrami. Ahmad said of him, "There is no harm in him." Ibn Hibban mentioned him among the trustworthy narrators. There is disagreement about whether Abdullah bin Nasih Hadrami was a companion of the Prophet. Ibn Hajar mentioned him in the first section of Al-Isabah. See the rest of the hadiths under the Battle of Badr.In His saying, "So go, you and your Lord, and fight, indeed we are sitting right here" [Maidah 5:24], there is evidence for those who say that not all of Banu Israil believed in the prophethood of Musa, peace be upon him, but rather they gathered around him as a leader who would bring them out of Pharaoh's oppression and free them from his enslavement, for this statement suggests that they were mocking Musa, peace be upon him, and this is not among the qualities of believers.
