Volume 4, Book 52, Number 162:
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah:
That he participated in a Ghazwa (Holy-Battle) in the company of Allah’s Apostle. Midday came
upon them while they were in a valley having many thorny trees. The people dispersed to rest in the
shade of the trees. The Prophet rested under a tree, hung his sword on it, and then slept. Then he
woke up to find near to him, a man whose presence he had not noticed before. The Prophet said,
“This (man) took my sword (out of its scabbard) and said, ‘Who will save you from me.’ I replied, ‘Al –
lah.’ So, he put the sword back into its scabbard, and you see him sitting here.” Anyhow, the Prophet
did not punish him. (See Hadith No. 158)
