they should go out, but the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: "By the One in Whose hand is my soul, I shall certainly go out, even if no one from among you goes out with me!"

يخرجُوا، فَقَالَ رَسُول الله ﷺ: وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لأخْرجَن، وَإِن لم يخرج معي مِنْكُم أحد! فَخرج مَعَه سَبْعُونَ رجلا؛ حَتَّى وافوا مَعَه بَدْرًا، وَلم يخرج أَبُو سُفْيَان وَلم يكن قتال، فتسوقوا فِي السُّوق، ثمَّ انصرفوا)).
فَهُوَ قَوْله: ﴿الَّذين قَالَ لَهُم النَّاس﴾ يَعْنِي: نعيما الْأَشْجَعِيّ ﴿إِنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ جَمَعُوا لَكُمْ فَاخْشَوْهُمْ فَزَادَهُمْ إِيمَانًا وَقَالُوا حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيل﴾
