حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ قَالَ عَمْرٌو سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّه ِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ يَقُولُ فِينَا نَزَلَتْ ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا‏}‏ قَالَ نَحْنُ الطَّائِفَتَانِ بَنُو حَارِثَةَ وَبَنُو سَلِمَةَ، وَمَا نُحِبُّ ـ وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً وَمَا يَسُرُّنِي ـ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تُنْزَلْ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا‏}‏

باب ‏<a href="https://quran.com/3/122-122">{‏إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ‏}</a>‏

Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:

The Verse:--"When two parties from among you were about to lose heart, but Allah was their 
Protector," (3.122) was revealed concerning us, and we were the two parties, i.e. Banu Haritha and 
Banu Salama, and we do not wish (that it had not been revealed) or I would not have been pleased (if 
it had not been revealed), for Allah says:--"...Allah was their Protector."

"When two parties from among you were about to lose heart..." (V.3:122)

Sahih al-Bukhari

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ فِينَا ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ‏}‏ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ وَبَنِي حَارِثَةَ، وَمَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَنْزِلْ، وَاللَّهُ يَقُولُ ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا‏}‏

باب <a href="javascript: openquran(2, 122, 122)">{‏إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ}</a>

Narrated Jabir:

This Verse: "When two of your parties almost Decided to fall away..." was revealed in our connection, 
i.e. Bani Salama and Bani Haritha and I would not have liked that, if it was not revealed, for Allah 
said:-- But Allah was their Protector.....(3.122)

“…but Allah was their Wali.”

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَنْظَلِيُّ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدَةَ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لإِسْحَاقَ - قَالاَ
 أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ فِينَا نَزَلَتْ ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏ إِذْ هَمَّتْ طَائِفَتَانِ مِنْكُمْ
 أَنْ تَفْشَلاَ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا‏}‏ بَنُو سَلِمَةَ وَبَنُو حَارِثَةَ وَمَا نُحِبُّ أَنَّهَا لَمْ تَنْزِلْ لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ
 ‏[quran sura="3" aya_start="122" aya_end="122"]{‏ وَاللَّهُ وَلِيُّهُمَا‏}‏ ‏.‏

باب مِنْ فَضَائِلِ الأَنْصَارِ رضى الله تعالى عنهم ‏‏

Jabir b. Abdullah reported that it was concerning them (the Ansar) that this verse was revealed, that when the two groups amongst you were about to lose heart and Allah was the Guardian of them both. This concerned Banu Salama and Banu Haritha and we did not like that Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, should not have revealed this verse for the fact that Allah (gave an assurance) of being the Guardian of both.
