A version of the tradition has been transmitted through another chain of narrators. In this version the words uttered by the Prophet ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) (after he had thrown the pebbles in the face of the enemy) are reported as: By the Lord of the Ka'ba, they have been defeated. And there is at the end the addition of the words: Until Allah defeated them (and I imagine) as if I saw the Prophet of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) chasing them on his mule.

He said: No, by Allah, The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) did not turn his back; (what actually happened was that) some young men from among his companions, who were hasty and who were either without any arms or did not have abundant arms, advanced and met a party of archers (who were so good shots) that their arrows never missed the mark. This party (of archers) belonged to Banu Hawazin and Banu Nadir. They shot at the advancing young men and their arrows were not likely to miss their targets. So these young men turned to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) while he was riding on his white mule and Abu Sufyan b. al-Harith b. 'Abd al-Muttalib was leading him. (At this) he got down from his mule, invoked God's help, and called out: I am the Prophet. This is no untruth. I am the son of 'Abd al-Muttalib. Then he deployed his men into battle array.
