[[Jabir b. 'Abd Allah al-Ansari]] is quoted as saying that he was saying the Friday Prayer with the [[Prophet (s)]] when a commercial caravan arrived in [[Medina]], and people (who attended the Friday Prayer) were scattered towards the caravan. Only twelve people stayed with the Prophet, including Jabir. It was then that the verse, "But when they saw a transaction or a diversion, [O Muhammad], they rushed to it and left you standing," was revealed.
