Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ آدَمَ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ عَن أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَن الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ قَالَ جَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الرُّمَاةِ وَكَانُوا خَمْسِينَ رَجُلًا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَقَالَ إِنْ رَأَيْتُمْ الْعَدُوَّ وَرَأَيْتُمْ الطَّيْرَ تَخْطَفُنَا فَلَا تَبْرَحُوا فَلَمَّا رَأَوْا الْغَنَائِمَ قَالُوا عَلَيْكُمْ الْغَنَائِمَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا تَبْرَحُوا قَالَ غَيْرُهُ فَنَزَلَتْ { وَعَصَيْتُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا أَرَاكُمْ مَا تُحِبُّونَ } يَقُولُ عَصَيْتُمْ الرَّسُولَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مَا أَرَاكُمْ الْغَنَائِمَ وَهَزِيمَةَ الْعَدُوِّ.
English Translation
Yahya ibn Adam told us, Zuhayr told us, from Abu Ishaq, from al-Bara' ibn 'Azib, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, placed 'Abdullah ibn Jubayr in charge of the archers, who were fifty men, on the day of Uhud, and said, "If you see the enemy and see the birds snatching us away, do not leave this place." But when they saw the spoils, they said, "Go for the spoils!" 'Abdullah said, "Did the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, not tell you not to leave this place?" Someone else said: then was revealed, {and you disobeyed after He had shown you what you love}, meaning: you disobeyed the Messenger after he had shown you the spoils and the defeat of the enemy.
