Hadith text

Narrated Zaid bin Thabit:When the Prophet (ﷺ) set out for (the battle of) Uhud, some of those who had gone out with him, returned. The companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) were divided into two groups. One group said, "We will fight them (i.e. the enemy)," and the other group said, "We will not fight them." So there came the Divine Revelation:-- '(O Muslims!) Then what is the matter within you that you are divided into two parties about the hypocrites? Allah has cast them back (to disbelief) Because of what they have earned.' (4.88) On that, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "That is Taiba (i.e. the city of Medina) which clears one from one's sins as the fire expels the impurities of silver

Zaid bin Thabit bataate hain: Jab Nabi Uhud ki jung ke liye nikle, unmein se kuch jo unke saath nikle the wapas aa gaye. Nabi ke sahaba do girohon mein baant gaye. Ek giroh ne kaha, "Hum unse (yaani dushman se) jung karenge," aur doosre ne kaha, "Hum unse jung nahi karenge." Ispar Divine Ayat naazil huee: "(Aye Musalmano!) Tumhe kya hua hai ke tum munafikon ke maamle mein do girohon mein baant gaye ho? Allah ne unhe (kufr ki taraf) waapas dhakel diya hai unki kamaee ki wajah se." (4:88) Ispar, Nabi ne kaha, "Yeh Taiba hai (yaani Madina shehar), jo insaan ko gunahon se saaf karta hai jaisa aag chaandi ki gandagi ko baahar nikalti hai."
