A Hundred Camels, and a Horse That Sank

Quraysh promised a hundred camels to whoever brought the Prophet ﷺ back. Suraqah ibn Malik wanted them and rode after him — and when he drew near, his horse's legs sank into the ground and threw him. He mounted again, and again it sank. He knew then that this affair was under protection, asked for safety, and went back turning people away from the road.

Greed brings loss, and what Allah protects cannot be overcome.

Quraysh promised a hundred camels to whoever brought back the Prophet ﷺ or Abu Bakr, and Suraqah ibn Malik — a skilled horseman — wanted them. He took his weapons and his horse and rode after them. Abu Bakr kept looking back in fear while the Prophet ﷺ recited and did not turn round. When Suraqah came close, his horse's legs sank into the ground up to the knees and threw him off. He got up and mounted again, and as soon as he was settled it sank again. Then Suraqah knew that this affair was under a protection he could not reach, so he called out asking for safety, and they granted it. He asked the Prophet ﷺ for a written guarantee, and it was written for him. Suraqah went back turning people away from that road, saying: this side has been searched. And later he became a Muslim.

Allah says: ﴿وَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ﴾ — “they plan, and Allah plans; and Allah is the best of planners.”
