Jami at-Tirmidhi 1716 (Book 23, Hadith 50) #27333
Regrouping with the Prophet as Reinforcement

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) encouraged his followers to remain loyal and not flee from battle, instead regrouping with him as their reinforcement.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar: "The Messenger of Allah sent us on a military expedition, and the people turned to escape. So we arrived in Al-Madinah and concealed ourselves in it and we said: 'We are ruined'. Then we went to the Messenger of Allah and we said: 'O Messenger of Allah! We are those who fled'. He said: 'Rather you are Al-'Akkarun (those who are regrouping) and I am your reinforcement. Abu 'Eisa said: This Hadith is Hasan Gharib. We do not know of it except as a narration of Yazid bin Abi Ziyad. And the meaning of his saying: "The people turned to escape" is that they fled from the fighting. As for the meaning of his saying: "Rather you are Al-'Akkarun," the 'Akkar is the one who flees to his Imam in order that he may help him, it does not mean fleeing from the advancing army.
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فِي سَرِيَّةٍ فَحَاصَ النَّاسُ حَيْصَةً فَقَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ فَاخْتَبَيْنَا بِهَا وَقُلْنَا هَلَكْنَا ثُمَّ أَتَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَحْنُ الْفَرَّارُونَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ بَلْ أَنْتُمُ الْعَكَّارُونَ وَأَنَا فِئَتُكُمْ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ لاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ‏.‏ وَمَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ فَحَاصَ النَّاسُ حَيْصَةً يَعْنِي أَنَّهُمْ فَرُّوا مِنَ الْقِتَالِ ‏.‏ وَمَعْنَى قَوْلِهِ ‏"‏ بَلْ أَنْتُمُ الْعَكَّارُونَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَالْعَكَّارُ الَّذِي يَفِرُّ إِلَى إِمَامِهِ لِيَنْصُرَهُ لَيْسَ يُرِيدُ الْفِرَارَ مِنَ الزَّحْفِ

EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by Ibn 'Umar speaks of a military expedition in which the people turned to flee. When they arrived in Al-Madinah, they felt defeated and went to the Messenger of Allah for help. He responded by saying that they were not fleeing but rather regrouping with him as their reinforcement. This hadith teaches us that we should never give up hope or lose faith in our leader, even when things seem bleak or difficult. Instead, we should remain loyal and seek strength from our leader who will always be there for us when we need it most. It also encourages us to stay strong and united during times of difficulty so that we can overcome any obstacle together.
