[17].Surah Al-Isra' [The Journey By Night]: Ayat 5


 also known as Surah Bani Israel [The Children of Israel]
Ayat 5. So, when the promise came for the first of the two, We sent against you slaves of Ours given to terrible warfare. They entered the very innermost parts of your homes. And it was a promise (completely) fulfilled.

Hazrat Abu Musa Al-Ashari (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) said, "When Allah intends to show mercy to a people, He collects their Prophet before them and makes him a herald to happiness for them in the Hereafter; and when He intends to destroy a people, He punishes them while their Prophet is alive, and destroys them while he is alive and watches them and makes him witness their destruction because they disbelieved in him and disobeyed his commands".
[Muslim Book 30, Chapter 08, Hadith # 5679]. 

Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Isra Ayat 05. We sent against you slaves of Ours given to terrible warfare. This Hadith tells us about a Divine law in respect of Prophets, which is meant to deter people from opposing the Prophet [SAWW](PBUH) and commands us to follow his footsteps, so that we can benefit from his intercession on the Day of Resurrection.
