عَنْ أَنَس بْن مَالِكٍ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ إِنَّا فَتَحْنَا لَكَ فَتْحًا مُبِينًا مَرْجِعَهُ مِنَ الْحُدَيْبِيَةِ وَهُمْ يُخَالِطُهُمُ الْحُزْنُ وَالْكَآبَةُ وَقَدْ نَحَرَ الْهَدْيَ بِالْحُدَيْبِيَةِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقَدْ أُنْزِلَتْ عَلَيَّ آيَةٌ هِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا جَمِيعًا
