Context
WE RELATE WITH a ṣaḥīḥ isnād from the Sunans of Abū Dāwūd and an-Nasā’ī, from Abū Mūsā al-Ash‘arī 
who related that when the Messenger of Allah 
was apprehensive of [a group of] people he would say: “O Allah, we make You responsible for their slaughter and we seek refuge in You from their evil.” [1].
