4136. Through another group of narrators, Jābir said, "We were in the company of the Prophet ﷺ (during the battle of) Dhāt-ur-Riqā', and we came across a shady tree and we left it for the Prophet ﷺ (to take rest under its shade). A man from Al-Mushrikūn came while the Prophet's sword was hanging on the tree. He took it out of its sheath secretly and said (to the Prophet ﷺ), 'Are you afraid of me?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'No.' He said, 'Who can save you from me?' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'Allāh.' The Companions of the Prophet ﷺ threatened him, then the Iqāma for the Ṣalāt (prayer) was announced and the Prophet ﷺ offered a two Rak'ā Fear Prayer with one of the two batches, and that batch went aside, then he offered again a two Rak'a prayer with the second batch. So the Prophet ﷺ offered four Rak'a but the people offered two Rak'a only." (The subnarrator) Abū Bishr added, "The man was Ghaurath bin Al-Hārith and the battle was waged against Muḥārīb Khaṣafa."

4136 - وَقَالَ أَبَانُ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَاتِ الرِّقَاعِ، فَإِذَا أَتَيْنَا عَلَى شَجَرَةٍ ظَلِيلَةٍ تَرَكْنَاهَا لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ المُشْرِكِينَ وَسَيْفُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعَلَّقٌ بِالشَّجَرَةِ، فَاخْتَرَطَهُ، فَقَالَ: تَخَافُنِي؟ قَالَ: «لاَ»، قَالَ: فَمَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي؟ قَالَ: «اللَّهُ» فَتَهَدَّدَهُ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ، فَصَلَّى بِطَائِفَةٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرُوا، وَصَلَّى بِالطَّائِفَةِ الأُخْرَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، وَكَانَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعٌ، وَلِلْقَوْمِ رَكْعَتَانِ وَقَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ، عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، اسْمُ الرَّجُلِ غَوْرَثُ بْنُ الحَارِثِ، وَقَاتَلَ فِيهَا مُحَارِبَ خَصَفَةَ، وَقَالَ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِنَخْلٍ، فَصَلَّى الخَوْفَ، وَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: «صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غَزْوَةَ نَجْدٍ صَلاَةَ الخَوْفِ» وَإِنَّمَا جَاءَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيَّامَ خَيْبَرَ "
