“This night [i.e. the night following the return from Madinah] was a night of great fear in Madinah, because although the army of the Quraish had apparently taken to Makkah, it was apprehended that this move may be a plot to catch the Muslims off guard, and suddenly return to attack Madinah. Hence, on this night an arrangement was made for security in Madinah and the Companions particularly stood guard all night long at the residence of the Holy Prophet (sa). The next morning it was discovered that this apprehension was not mere speculation, because prior to Fajr Salat, the Holy Prophet (sa) received news that the army of the Quraish had stalled at a few miles from Madinah and a heated debate was taking place amongst the chieftains of Makkah, that making use of this victory, why not attack Madinah. Some of the Quraish were taunting one another saying: ‘You did not kill Muhammad [sa], nor did you take the Muslim women as slaves, nor did you seize their wealth and possessions; rather, when you gained dominance over them and received the opportunity to destroy them completely, you just left them and turned back, so that they may collect strength again. There is still time, let us return and attack Madinah and uproot the Muslims once and for all.’
