@Hadithoftheday Bani Israel refused to fight in Allah's cause (Jihad).
Allah says in Qur'an:

"Then indeed, it is forbidden to them for forty years [in which] they will wander throughout the land. So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people."
(Qur'an: Al-Maaida 5: Verse 26)

@Hadithoftheday Allah Says in Qur'an:
"Musa said, O my people, enter the Holy Land which Allah has assigned to you and do not turn back [from fighting in Allah 's cause] and [thus] become losers."
(QS. Al-Maaida 5: Verse 21)

@Hadithoftheday "They said, O Musa, indeed within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and indeed, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter."
(Qur'an: Al-Maaida 5: Verse 22)

@Hadithoftheday When Bani Israel were walking towards Baitul Maqdis (Jerusalem), Musa A.S commanded Bani Israel to enter the city, and expel the wrongdoers from Jerusalem, for Allah had promised this land to them by their father Ibrahim A.S and then through Musa A.S+

@Hadithoftheday Bani Israel was the most impertinent, cowardly and troublesome race. That is why prophet after prophet was sent to their communities, to rectify their disbelieving ways.
They offered paltry excuses, & therefore not only denied what Allah had promised, but blatantly disobeyed Him

@Hadithoftheday [Musa AS said] “O my people! Enter the holy land (Palestine) which Allah has assigned to you, and turn not back (in flight) for then you will be returned as losers. (Surah Maa'idah)

@Hadithoftheday They said: “O Musa ! In it (this holy land) are a people of great strength, and we shall never enter it, till they leave it; when they leave, then we will enter.” (Al Qur’an- 5:22)

@Hadithoftheday Even with Allah’s promise of victory, their faith in Allah was so weak that they flatly refused. Only two of the entire Bani Israel were willing to heed Allah’s command.+

@Hadithoftheday Allah says in Qur'an:
Two men of those who feared (Allah and) on whom Allah had bestowed His Grace said: “Assault them through the gate, for when you are in, victory will be yours, and put your trust in Allah if you are believers indeed.”(Al Qur’an 5:23)

@Hadithoftheday As for the rest, they preferred to just sit and watch like cowards, publicly confirming their disbelief and insolence to Allah. They were so spiritually blinded and defeated from within that they had no courage to overcome their internal humiliation and behave with dignity.

@Hadithoftheday They said: “O Musa (Musa)! We shall never enter it as long as they are there. So go you and your Lord and fight you two, we are sitting right here.” (Al Qur’an 5:24)

@Hadithoftheday In response to this, Musa A.S turned towards Allah and said:

“O my Lord! I have power only over myself and my brother, so separate us from the people who are the Fasiqun (rebellious and disobedient to Allah)!” (Al Qur’an 5:25).

@Hadithoftheday As a punishment for their disobedience and rebelliousness, Allah made them lost in the desert for forty years. The tribes travelled aimlessly, with no destination, purpose or comfort, day or night; lost and without any bearings.

@Hadithoftheday (Allah) said: “Therefore it (this holy land) is forbidden to them for forty years; in distraction they will wander through the land. So be not sorrowful over the people who are the Fasiqun (rebellious and disobedient to Allah).” (Al Qur’an 5:26)
