[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."

311 - (843) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، 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، قَالَ: فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ وَسَيْفُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُعَلَّقٌ بِشَجَرَةٍ، فَأَخَذَ سَيْفَ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَاخْتَرَطَهُ، فَقَالَ 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، قَالَ: فَنُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ، فَصَلَّى بِطَائِفَةٍ رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ تَأَخَّرُوا، وَصَلَّى بِالطَّائِفَةِ الْأُخْرَى رَكْعَتَيْنِ، قَالَ: فَكَانَتْ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعُ رَكَعَاتٍ، وَلِلْقَوْمِ رَكْعَتَانِ
