When the traders were about to leave Medina, the two sons of Abu'l-Husayn called them to embrace Christianity. These traders converted to Christianity and then left Medina.

They are the first to disbelieve'. This was before the Messenger of Allah, Allah bless him and give him peace, was commanded to fight the people of the Book. But then Allah's saying (There is no compulsion in religion…) was abrogated and the Prophet was commanded to fight the people of the Book in Surah Repentance”.}} | {{Quote|1=[http://altafsir.com/asbabalnuzol.asp?soraname=2&ayah=256&search=yes&img=a&languageid=2 The reasons for the descent of the verse number (256) of Sura (The Cow)]<BR>Asbab Al-Nuzul by Al-Wahidi, trans.
