Hadith text
Narrated Ka`b bin Malik:I never failed to join Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in any of his Ghazawat except in the Ghazwa of Tabuk. However, I did not take part in the Ghazwa of Badr, but none who failed to take part in it, was blamed, for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had gone out to meet the caravans of (Quraish, but Allah caused them (i.e. Muslims) to meet their enemy unexpectedly (with no previous intention)
Ka'b bin Malik bataate hain: Main kabhi Allah ke Rasool ki kisi Ghazwe mein shaamil hone se chhoota nahi siwaye Tabuk ke Ghazwe ke. Magar main Badr ki jung mein shaamil nahi hua tha, chahe jo koee ismein shaamil nahi hue, unhe iske liye kabhi doshi thahraya gaya, kyunke Allah ke Rasool (Quraish ke) caravanon se milne gaye the, magar Allah ne unhe (yaani Musalmanon ko) unke dushman se achanak milwaya (bina koee pahle se irada ke).
