واذ قالت طائفة منهم يا اهل يثرب لا مقام لكم فارجعوا ويستاذن فريق منهم النبي يقولون ان بيوتنا عورة وما هي بعورة ان يريدون الا فرارا

Behold! A party among them Said: "Ye men of Yathrib! Ye cannot stand (the attack)! Therefore go back!" And a band of them Ask for leave of the Prophet, Saying, "Truly our houses Are bare and exposed," though They were not exposed: They intended nothing but To run away.
