English translation
[1949] 311 - (843) It was narrated that Jābir said: "We came with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ to Dhāt Ar-Riqā'. Whenever we came to a shady tree, we would leave it for the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. A man from the idolators came and the sword of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was hanging on a tree. He took the sword of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and unsheathed it, and he said to the Messenger of Allâh ﷻ: 'Aren't you afraid of me?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'Who will protect you from me?' He said: 'Allâh will protect me from you.' The Companions of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ threatened him, so he put the sword back in its sheath and hung it up again. Then the call for prayer was given and he led one group in praying two Rak'ah, then they moved back and he led the other group in praying two Rak'ah. So the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ prayed four Rak'ah and the people prayed two."
