"عن على قال: سَأَلَ قوله من بنى النجار رسول الله ﷺ فقالوا: يا رسول الله! إنَّا نَضْرِبُ في الأرْضِ فكَيْفَ نُصَلّى؟ فَأَنْزَلَ الله {وَإِذَا ضَرَبْتُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ فَلَيْسَ عَلَيْكُمْ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ تَقْصُرُوا مِنَ الصَّلَاةِ}، ثُمَّ انْقَطَعَ الْوَحْىُ، فَلَما كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلكِ بحول غَزَا النبيُّ ﷺ فَصَلَّى الظُّهر، فَقَالَ المُشرِكُون: لقد أمْكَنكُمْ مُحمدٌ وأصْحَابه مِن ظُهُورهِم، هَلَّا شَدَدْتُم عَلَيهم؟ فَقَالَ قَائِل مِنْهُم: إِنَّ لهم أخْرى مِثْلهَا في أثرِهَا، فأنْزَلَ الله بَينَ الصَّلاَتَيْن: {إِنْ خِفْتُمْ أَنْ يَفْتِنَكُمُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا إِنَّ الْكَافِرِينَ كَانُوا لَكُمْ عَدُوًّا مُبِينًا (101) وَإِذَا كُنْتَ فِيهِمْ فَأَقَمْتَ لَهُمُ الصَّلَاةَ} إلى قوله: {إِنَّ اللَّهَ أَعَدَّ لِلْكَافِرِينَ عَذَابًا مُهِينًا}، فَنَزَلَت صَلاَة الخَوْفِ".

"From 'Ali, who said: Some men from the Banu al-Najjar asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, we travel in the land, so how should we pray? Then Allah revealed: {And when you travel in the land, there is no blame upon you if you shorten the prayer}. Then the revelation stopped. After a year, the Prophet ﷺ went on a military expedition and prayed Zuhr. The polytheists said: Muhammad and his companions had an opportunity against you from behind; why did you not press upon them? One of them said: They have another prayer after this one. So Allah revealed between the two prayers: {If you fear that those who disbelieve will harm you, indeed the disbelievers are to you a clear enemy (101). And when you are among them and establish prayer for them} until His saying: {Indeed, Allah has prepared for the disbelievers a humiliating punishment}. Then the prayer of fear was revealed."
