حَدَّثَنَا مُطَّلِبُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ: حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ نَاسًا مُسْلِمِينَ كَانُوا مَعَ مُشْرِكِينَ، يُكَثِّرُونَ سَوَادَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَيَأْتِي السَّهْمُ يُرْمَى بِهِ أَحَدُهُمْ فَيُقْتَلُ "، فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ جَلَّ جَلَالُهُ: الَّذِينَ تَوَفَّاهُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ ظَالِمِي أَنْفُسِهِمْ قَالُوا فِيمَ كُنْتُمْ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ وَسَاءَتْ مَصِيرًا

✧ Some Muslims were with the polytheists, swelling the ranks of the polytheists against the Messenger of God ﷺ. An arrow would be shot and strike one of them, and he would be killed. Then God, majestic is His glory, revealed: 'Those whom the angels take in death while wronging themselves,' they said, 'In what condition were you?' up to His saying: 'and evil is the destination.'
