\nNarrated `Abdullah bin `Amr:\n \n\nWhen Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) besieged Taif and could not conquer its people, he said, "We will return (to \nMedina) If Allah wills." That distressed the Companions (of the Prophet (ﷺ) and they said, "Shall we go \naway without conquering it (i.e. the Fort of Taif)?" Once the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Let us return." Then the \nProphet said (to them), "Fight tomorrow." They fought and (many of them) got wounded, whereupon \nthe Prophet (ﷺ) said, "We will return (to Medina) tomorrow if Allah wills." That delighted them, \nwhereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) smiled. The sub-narrator, Sufyan said once, "(The Prophet) smiled."\n
