Description:
We read in Tafsir Ibn Kathir Vol 4, pg. 181 - 182:

وقال الإمام أحمد رحمه الله: حدثنا يزيد أخبرنا الوليد بن عبد الله بن جميع، عن أبي الطفيل قال : لما أقبل رسول الله ﷺ من غزوة تبوك، أمر مناديا فنادى: إن رسول الله ﷺ أخذ العقبة فلا يأخذها أحد. فبينما رسول الله ﷺ يقوده حذيفة ويسوقه عمار، إذ أقبل رهط متلثمون على الرواحل فغشوا عمارا وهو يسوق برسول الله، وأقبل عمار رضى الله عنه يضرب وجوه الرواحل فقال رسول الله الحذيفة : قد قدا حتى هبط رسول الله ، فلما هبط نزل ورجع عمار، فقال: «يا عمار هل عرفت القوم ؟ فقال : قد عرفت عامة الرواحل، والقوم متلثمون قال: هل تدرى ما أرادوا ؟ قال : الله ورسوله أعلم . قال : أرادوا أن ينفروا برسول الله ﷺ فيطرحوه. قال : فسار عمار رجلا من أصحاب النبي ﷺ فقال : نشدتك بالله كم تعلم كان أصحاب العقبة؟ قال : أربعة عشر. فقال: إن كنت منهم فقد كانوا خمسة عشر. قال: فعذر رسول الله ﷺ منهم ثلاثة قالوا: والله ما سمعنا منادى رسول الله، وما علمنا ما أراد القوم فقال عمار: أشهد أن الاثنى عشر الباقين حرب الله ولرسوله في الحياة الدنيا ويوم يقوم الأشهاد وهكذا روى ابن لهيعة، عن أبي الأسود، عن عروة بن الزبير نحو هذا، وأن رسول الله ﷺ أمر أن يمشى الناس في بطن الوادى، وصعد هو وحذيفة وعمار العقبة، فتبعهم هؤلاء النفر الأرذلون وهم متلثمون، فأرادوا سلوك العقبة، فأطلع الله على مرادهم رسول الله ، فأمر حذيفة فرجع إليهم، فضرب وجوه رواحلهم، ففزعوا ورجعوا مقبوحين، وأعلم رسول الله ﷺ حذيفة وعمارا بأسمائهم، وما كانوا هموا به من الفتك به صلوات الله وسلامه عليه، وأمرهما أن يكتما عليهم

Narrated Yazid, narrated Al-Walid ibn Abdullah ibn Jumai from Aboo Tufail (r.a) who said: "When the Prophet (saw) set out to go to the battle of Tabuk, he stopped at Uqbah and then commanded his caller to call that no one should take the path leading to Uqbah since the Prophet (saw) was travelling in that path, and then whilst the Prophet (saw) had Ammar bin Yasir (r.a) pulling his camel from the front and Hudhaifah pushing from the back, a group having their faces covered came on a caravan and attacked the Holy Prophet (saw). Ammar (r.a) then came and attacked the masked men (May Allah (swt) Curse be upon them!) The Holy Prophet (saw) then said to Hudhaifah: ‘Quickly pull forward, pull forward.’ Then the Prophet (saw) came off the camel and asked Ammar (r.a) whether he had identified those people, Ammar (r.a) said: ‘No, they were masked.’ The Prophet (saw) asked: ‘Do you know what they wanted?’ Ammar (r.a) said: ‘Allah (swt) and his messenger (saw) know better.’ The Prophet (saw) said: ‘They wanted to throw the Prophet (saw) off from the Uqbah.’ After that when Ammar (r.a) had a dispute with one of them (people who tried to kill the Prophet), Ammar (r.a) said to him: ‘I swear to you by Allah (swt), how many people of the Uqbah tried to attack the Prophet (saw)?’ The man said: ‘We think they were about fourteen.’ Ammar (r.a) said: ‘And if you were amongst them it would be fifteen.’ Three of them put forward this excuse to the Prophet(saw): 'We did not hear the caller of the messenger of Allah (saw).' Ammar ibn Yassir (r.a) said: 'I bear testimony that the remaining twelve will fight Allah (swt) and His messenger (saw) in this world and on the day when the witnesses will be resurrected.'

Narrated ibn Lahima from Abi Aswad from Urwa ibn Zubair: "The messenger of Allah (saw) ordered the people to go by the valley and he went up with Hudhaifah and Ammar (r.a) by the Uqbah, then those wicked with faces covered followed them, and wanted to kill the Prophet (saw), so Allah (swt) revealed their intention to his messenger (saw) and he commanded Hudhaifah. Thus he turned towards them and hit them in their faces, they got scared and went back without any success. The messenger of Allah (saw) revealed their names to Hudhaifah and Ammar (r.a) and told them that they wanted to kill him (saw) and told them to pretend so as if you don't know them.
