Battle of Khandaq: Difference between revisions

The most difficult time for Muslims was when it was known that [[Banu Qurayza]] tribe, who had promised to be impartial in case of war, violated the contract and leaned towards the polytheists. [[Ka'b b. Asad al-Qurazi]], the leader of Banu Qurayza, chose to be on the polytheists' side, despite his unwillingness at the beginning. The Prophet (s) sent the leaders of [[Aws and Khazraj]] tribes (in order: [[Sa'd b. Mu'adh]] and [[Sa'd b. 'Ubada]]) to make sure about the authenticity of this news. He asked them to inform him in a way that no one found out so that it would not put Muslims in low spirits. Banu Qurayza had the worst behavior with them with the most insulting words. They came back to the Prophet (s) and notified him by naming the two tribes 'Adal and Qara. What they meant by it was the remembrance of the treachery of these two tribes towards [[Khubayb b. 'Ady]] and his friends in Raji'.
