SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Battle of the Ditch and how two men, Abdullah b. Zubair and Umar b. Salama, were in a fort with the wives of Allah's Apostle during this battle.

'Abdullah b. Zubair reported: When it was the Day of the Battle of the Ditch I and 'Umar b. Salama were in the fort in which there were women, i. e. the wives of Allah's Apostle ; the rest of the hadith is the same.
وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ الْخَنْدَقِ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَعُمَرُ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ فِي الأُطُمِ الَّذِي فِيهِ النِّسْوَةُ يَعْنِي نِسْوَةَ النَّبِيِّ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ ابْنِ مُسْهِرٍ فِي هَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُرْوَةَ فِي الْحَدِيثِ وَلَكِنْ أَدْرَجَ الْقِصَّةَ فِي حَدِيثِ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about an event that took place during Prophet Muhammad's lifetime known as the Battle of the Ditch or Khandaq in Arabic. During this battle, two men named Abdullah b. Zubair and Umar b. Salama were in a fort with Prophet Muhammad's wives at that time for protection from their enemies who wanted to attack them from outside Medina city walls where they lived at that time. This hadith teaches us to be brave when faced with danger and to protect those we love even if it means putting ourselves in harm’s way for them like these two men did for Prophet Muhammad’s wives during this battle by staying inside a fort with them while their enemies attacked from outside its walls. It also teaches us to have faith in Allah because He will always protect us no matter what situation we are facing as long as we put our trust in Him like these two men did during this battle by staying inside a fort despite being outnumbered by their enemies outside its walls who wanted to attack them but could not due to Allah’s protection over His believers which was made clear through His victory over their enemies on that day despite being outnumbered by them significantly both numerically and militarily speaking .
