Ibn ‘Abbas reported: ‘When the Messenger of Allah had finished at Badr, someone said to him, “You should pursue the caravan; nothing less will do.” Al-‘Abbas called out while he was still bound, “That would not be right. Allah promised you one of the two groups, and He has already given you what He promised.” The Prophet said, “You have spoken the truth.”’ Abu ‘Isa graded this hadith hasan sahih.
