حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: أَقْبَلْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى إِذَا كُنَّا بِذَاتِ الرِّقَاعِ، قَالَ: كُنَّا إِذَا أَتَيْنَا عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ ظَلِيلَةٍ تَرَكْنَاهَا لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ، وَسَيْفُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعَلَّقٌ بِشَجَرَةٍ، فَأَخَذَ سَيْفَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاخْتَرَطَهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِرَسُولِ، ، اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَتَخَافُنِي؟ قَالَ: " لَا "، قَالَ: فَمَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ يَمْنَعُنِي مِنْكَ "، قَالَ: فَتَهَدَّدَهُ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَغْمَدَ السَّيْفَ وَعَلَّقَهُ، فَنُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ، فَصَلَّى بِطَائِفَةٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَتَأَخَّرُوا وَصَلَّى بِالطَّائِفَةِ الْأُخْرَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، فَكَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعُ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَلِلْقَوْمِ رَكْعَتَانِ (١)، ،

English translation

Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says that once we were returning with the Messenger of Allah. When we reached Dhat al-Riqa’, we left a shady tree for the Prophet (ﷺ). A polytheist came at that time, and the Prophet’s sword was hanging from the tree. He took the Prophet’s sword and drew it, and said, “Do you fear me?” I said, “No.” He said, “Now who will save you from my hand?” I said, “Allah will save me.” Hearing this, the sword fell from his hand. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, “Now who will save you from me?” Then the companions frightened him, and the Prophet (ﷺ) put the sword back in its sheath and then announced the prayer. The Prophet (ﷺ) led one group in two rak‘ahs, then they left, and he led the other group in two rak‘ahs as well. In this way, the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed four rak‘ahs, and the people prayed two rak‘ahs.
