Combining Allah’s protection of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with the attempt to poison him

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. This questioner says: In the words of Allah the Exalted,
And Allah will protect you from the peopleوَاللَّهُ يَعْصِمُكَ مِنَ النَّاسِ
[Al-Ma'idah 5:67]
how do we reconcile this verse with the story of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) with the Jewish woman who placed poison in the sheep?

Answer:
This is betrayal, this is betrayal. As for His protecting you from the people, that is from the harm of the people, their killing you, and their preventing you from proceeding with the call. Yes.
