In response to the planning of the hypocrites to create mayhem in Medina in the absence of Rasool-Allah -saww , the Prophet -saww decided to leave Ali -asws Ibn Abi Talib -asws as his -saww successor in Medina.

و لما نزل النبي ص تبوك أقام بها شهرين و كان ما أخبر به النبي ص من بعث‏ هرقل أصحابه و دنوه إلى أدنى الشام و عزمه على قتال النبي ص و المسلمين باطلا و بعث هرقل رجلا من غسان إلى النبي ص ينظر إلى صفته و علاماته و إلى حمرة في عينيه و إلى خاتم النبوة و سأل فإذا هو لا يقبل الصدقة فوعى أشياء من صفات النبي ص And the Prophet -saww descended at Tabuk and stayed there for two months, and what the Prophet -saww had been informed of – (regarding) the sending of Hercules and his companions (to fight against Muslims), and his approaching to near Syria and his determination upon fighting the Prophet -saww and the Muslims – did not happen.

(Instead) Hercules sent men from Gasaan to the Prophet -saww to look at his -saww description and his -saww signs and at the redness in his -saww eyes and at the seal of the Prophet-hood and ask that he -saww does not accept the charities. So, he (the reporter) retained (some) things from the attributes of the Prophet -saww . ثم انصرف إلى هرقل فذكرها له فدعا هرقل قومه إلى التصديق به فأبوا عليه حتى خافهم على ملكه و أسلم هو سرا منهم و امتنع من قتال النبي ص فلم يؤذن النبي ص لقتاله فرجع قالوا.

Then he left to go to Hercules and mentioned them (these attributes) to him. Hercules called his people to the verification with it, but they refused to him until he scared them upon his kingdom; and he secretly became a Muslim and prohibited them from fighting the Prophet -saww , and the Prophet -saww did not permit to fight him, and returned back to Medina.
