\nNarrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:\n \n\nWe took part in the Ghazwa of Najd along with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and when the time for the afternoon \nrest approached while he was in a valley with plenty of thorny trees, he dismounted under a tree and \nrested in its shade and hung his sword (on it). The people dispersed amongst the trees in order to have \nshade. While we were in this state, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) called us and we came and found a bedouin sitting \nin front of him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "This (Bedouin) came to me while I was asleep, and he took my \nsword stealthily. I woke up while he was standing by my head, holding my sword without its sheath. \nHe said, 'Who will save you from me?' I replied, 'Allah.' So he sheathed it (i.e. the sword) and sat \ndown, and here he is." But Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not punish him.\n

حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودٌ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم غَزْوَةَ نَجْدٍ، فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَتْهُ الْقَائِلَةُ وَهْوَ فِي وَادٍ كَثِيرِ الْعِضَاهِ، فَنَزَلَ تَحْتَ شَجَرَةٍ وَاسْتَظَلَّ بِهَا وَعَلَّقَ سَيْفَهُ، فَتَفَرَّقَ النَّاسُ فِي الشَّجَرِ يَسْتَظِلُّونَ، وَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ كَذَلِكَ إِذْ دَعَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَجِئْنَا، فَإِذَا أَعْرَابِيٌّ قَاعِدٌ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَقَالَ ‏\n"‏ إِنَّ هَذَا أَتَانِي وَأَنَا نَائِمٌ، فَاخْتَرَطَ سَيْفِي فَاسْتَيْقَظْتُ، وَهْوَ قَائِمٌ عَلَى رَأْسِي، مُخْتَرِطٌ صَلْتًا، قَالَ مَنْ يَمْنَعُكَ مِنِّي قُلْتُ اللَّهُ‏.‏ فَشَامَهُ، ثُمَّ قَعَدَ، فَهْوَ هَذَا ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ وَلَمْ يُعَاقِبْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم‏.‏
