Sa'd reported:
We were six men in the company of Allah's Messenger (, nay peace be upon him) that the polytheists said to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ): Drive them away so that they may not be overbold upon us. He said: I, Ibn Mas'ud and a person from the tribe of Hudhail, Bilal and two other persons, whose names I do not know (were amongst such persons). And there occurred to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) what. Allah wished and he talked with himself that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, revealed: Do not drive away those who call their Lord morning and evening desiring to seek His pleasure.
