حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: قَاتَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُحَارِبَ بْنَ خَصَفَةَ، (٢) فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ يُقَالُ لَهُ غَوْرَثُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَتَّى قَامَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالسَّيْفِ، فَقَالَ: مَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي؟ قَالَ: " اللهُ " فَسَقَطَ السَّيْفُ مِنْ يَدِهِ، فَأَخَذَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " مَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي؟ " قَالَ: كُنْ كَخَيْرِ آخِذٍ قَالَ: " وأَتَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ، وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللهِ؟ " قَالَ: لَا، وَلَكِنْ أُعَاهِدُكَ عَلَى أَنْ لَا أُقَاتِلَكَ، وَلَا أَكُونَ مَعَ قَوْمٍ يُقَاتِلُونَكَ، فَخَلَّى سَبِيلَهُ، فَأَتَى قَوْمَهُ فَقَالَ: جِئْتُكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِ خَيْرِ النَّاسِ، فَلَمَّا حَضَرَتِ الصَّلَاةُ صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَلَاةَ الْخَوْفِ، فَكَانَ النَّاسُ طَائِفَتَيْنِ طَائِفَةً بِإِزَاءِ عَدُوِّهِمْ، (٣) وَطَائِفَةً صَلَّوْا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَصَلَّى بِالطَّائِفَةِ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَانْصَرَفُوا فَكَانُوا بِمَكَانِ أُولَئِكَ الَّذِينَ بِإِزَاءِ عَدُوِّهِمْ، وَانْصَرَفَ الَّذِينَ بِإِزَاءِ عَدُوِّهِمْ فَصَلَّوْا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَكْعَتَيْنِ فَكَانَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ، أَرْبَعَ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَلِلْقَوْمِ رَكْعَتَيْنِ (١) رَكْعَتَيْنِ (٢)،

Translation

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 me?” I said, “Allah will save me.” The companions frightened and threatened him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said that Allah caused the sword to fall from his hand. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Now who will save you?” He said, “You are the best taker.” And he said, “I promise you that I will not fight against you, nor will I be with those who fight against you.” Hearing this, 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 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.
