Sahih al-Bukhari Book 65, Hadith 217
That when he asked `Aisha about the statement of Allah "Until when the Apostles gave up hope (of
their people)." (12.110) she told him (its meaning), `Urwa added, "I said, 'Did they (Apostles) suspect
that they were betrayed (by Allah) or that they were treated as liars by (their people)?' `Aisha said,
'(They suspected) that they were treated as liars by (their people),' I said, 'But they were sure that their
people treated them as liars and it was not a matter of suspicion.' She said, 'Yes, upon my life they
were sure about it.' I said to her. 'So they (Apostles) suspected that they were betrayed (by Allah).' She
said, "Allah forbid! The Apostles never suspected their Lord of such a thing.' I said, 'What about this
Verse then?' She said, 'It is about the Apostles' followers who believed in their Lord and trusted their
Apostles, but the period of trials was prolonged and victory was delayed till the Apostles gave up all
hope of converting those of the people who disbelieved them and the Apostles thought that their
followers treated them as liars; thereupon Allah's help came to them.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on (Prophet) Lot. (When his nation troubled him) he wished if he could betake himself to some powerful support; and if I were to remain in prison for the period Joseph had remained, I would surely respond to the call; and we shall have more right (to be in doubt) than Abraham: When Allah said to him, "Don't you believe?' Abraham said, 'Yes, (I do believe) but to be stronger in faith; (2.260)
"I told her (`Aisha): (Regarding the above narration), they (Apostles) were betrayed (by Allah)." She said: Allah forbid or said similarly.
