عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ رَضيَ اللهُ عنه قَالَ: نَظَرْتُ إِلَى أَقْدَامِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا وَنَحْنُ فِي الْغَارِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَوْ أَنَّ أَحَدَهُمْ نَظَرَ إِلَى قَدَمَيْهِ أَبْصَرَنَا تَحْتَ قَدَمَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، مَا ظَنُّكَ بِاثْنَيْنِ اللهُ ثَالِثُهُمَا».
Abu Bakr as-Siddīq (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: When we were in the cave, I saw the feet of the polytheists as I raised my head, and I said: O Messenger of Allah, if one of them looked below his feet, he would see us. He said: "O Abu Bakr, what do you think of two persons, the third of whom is Allah?"

Explanation
The Commander of the Believers, Abu Bakr as-Siddīq (may Allah be pleased with him), said during the time of migration: I looked at the feet of the polytheists standing above us at the entrance of Cave Thawr while we were inside, and I said: O Messenger of Allah, if one of them were to look at his feet, he would see us beneath him. He replied: O Abu Bakr, what do you think of the two when Allah is their third, granting them victory, aid, protection, and support?!

عن عائشة وابن عباس رضي الله عنهم : «أنَّ النبيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَبِثَ بمكَّة عشرَ سِنِين، يَنْزلُ عليه القرآنَ، وبالمدينة عشرًا».
‘Ā’ishah and Ibn ‘Abbās (may Allah be pleased with both of them) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stayed in Makkah for ten years and then in Madīnah for ten years, and the Qur’an was descending upon him (in both).
Narrated by BukhariGradeAuthentic hadith
Explanation
This Hadīth shows that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stayed for ten years in Makkah, after having become a Prophet, and stayed for ten years in Madīnah as well, and that the Qur’an was sent down on him during that whole period. It is proved in other than this Hadīth that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stayed in Makkah for thirteen years after he had been sent as a Prophet. Both traditions could be reconciled as follows: the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) stayed for three years in Makkah without proclaiming his message. After that, the revelation was sent down successively. It is as if those who reported the ten-year-period did not count those three years, or they just rounded up the thirteen years to ten.
