Salam Alaykum,
I found the following on a blog, and wanted to check the authenticity of what it says:
One one occasion a party of Jews
conspired to bring about disunity in the ranks of the Muslims after seeing
the Aus and Khazraj within Islam. A youth from amongst them was sent to
incite remembrance of the battle of Bu’ath where the Aus had been victorious
over the Khazraj, and he recited poetry to bring about division between
them. As a result there was a call to arms.
When the news reached the Messenger of Allah (saaw), he (saaw) said,
“O Muslims, remember Allah, remember Allah. Will you act as pagans while I
am present with you after Allah has guided you to Islam, and honored you
thereby and made a clean break with paganism; delivered you thereby from
disbelief; and made you friends thereby?”
When they heard this they wept, and embraced each other.
