167b. They answered: If we knew aught of fighting we would
follow you. On that day they were nearer disbelief than faith. They utter
with their mouths a thing, which is not in their hearts. And Allah is Best
Aware of what they hide.
168. Those who, while they sat at home, said of their
brethren (who were fighting for the Cause of Allah): If they had obeyed us
they would not have been slain. Say (unto them, O Muhammad): Then avert death
from yourselves if ye are truthful.

Lesson
Greatest help
and power, which is considered most useful in the battlefield, is that either
the fighters would have complete support from their rear or they have
expectation that their companions and protectors exist on their back, and they
will be reaching very soon. Contrary to it, those soldiers remain in an
excessive distressed condition and withered whose own companions leave them
helpless and they have no hope regarding any help.
Abdullah bin
‘Ubayy adopted such behavior with the Muslim
Crusaders. That is to say; at that time; when the enemy was in front of them
and the Infidelity and Islam were near to knocking against each other, he
brought back his companions. When he was advised in this connection, he replied
that there is no chance of fight. If we would have known that really; the both
armies are going to fight, then we would have gone with you. Even now, if we
felt that the war has begun, we would come with you. He aimed also from this
conversation that if really there were any encounter, we certainly would have
remained with you. There is no comparison among your army and the army of
Infidels and Idolaters. You have only one thousand personnel and they have
three thousand braves. In addition, even you have no war equipment. It is not a
battle, but to put oneself into destruction unnecessarily. In other words, it
means from this description, “If we would know how to fight or aware of the art
of war, then we would have remained with you”. As though, they taunted the
Muslims in their hearts, “You did not act upon our advice, accepted opinion of
others, as if; we are comprehended as ignorant from the established orders of
war”. They tried to harm the Muslims from this act and strengthened the
Infidels. They began to say the ‘Ansaar (a tribe of sheikhs
supposed to have belonged originally to Madinah
and embraced Islam), “If they had followed us and remained at their homes; they
would not have been slain”. Allah Almighty commanded them that if it is not possible
to be saved from death at home, then why not it should be accepted, by coming
out in the battlefield like the brave people.
