Military Expeditions led by the Prophet (pbuh) (Al-Maghaazi)
Chapter: The return of the Prophet (saws) from Ahzab and his going out to Bani Quraiza
Narrated `Aisha:
When the Prophet (ﷺ) returned from Al-Khandaq (i.e. Trench) and laid down his arms and took a bath, Gabriel came and said (to the Prophet (ﷺ) ), You have laid down your arms? By Allah, we angels have not laid them down yet. So set out for them." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Where to go?" Gabriel said, "Towards this side," pointing towards Banu Quraiza. So the Prophet (ﷺ) went out towards them.
