The Meaning of His Saying: "I was supported by terror, a month's journey away."

The Shaykh : First, this means that his enemy is terrified of him, and the distance between them is a month's journey. But he says, "I was supported." Is terror a form of support? Yes? Yes, indeed. One of the greatest forms of support is for Allah to cast terror into the hearts of your enemies, because if terror falls into the enemy's heart, he will never stand against you. What will be his path? Flight, flight. He cannot remain.
And His saying "a month's journey"—by what kind of journey? The journey of camels, or the journey on foot, or the journey by ship, or the journey by airplane, or what? We say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), like others, interprets his words according to what was customary and known. What was customary and known at that time was that "a month's journey" meant a month's journey by camel. And this support is among the greatest forms of support, yes, because it causes the enemy to flee without fighting.
