اخبرنا ابو العباس محمد بن احمد المحبوبي، حدثنا محمد بن معاذ، حدثنا ابو النعمان محمد بن الفضل عارم، حدثنا ابو عوانة، عن ابي بشر، عن سليمان بن قيس، عن جابر بن عبد الله، قال: قاتل رسول الله ﷺ محارب خصفة بنخل، فراوا من المسلمين غرة، فجاء رجل منهم يقال له: غورث (1) بن الحارث، حتى قام على راس رسول الله ﷺ بالسيف، فقال: من يمنعك مني؟ قال:"الله" قال: فسقط السيف من يده، فاخذ رسول الله ﷺ السيف فقال:"من يمنعك؟" قال: كن خير آخذ، قال:"تشهد ان لا إله إلا الله واني رسول الله؟" قال الاعرابي: اعاهدك ان لا اقاتلك، ولا اكون مع قوم يقاتلونك، قال: فخلى رسول الله ﷺ سبيله، فجاء إلى قومه، فقال: جئتكم من عند خير الناس، فلما حضرت الصلاة صلى رسول الله ﷺ صلاة الخوف، وكان الناس طائفتين، طائفة بإزاء العدو، وطائفة تصلي مع رسول الله ﷺ، فصلى بالطائفة الذين معه ركعتين، فانصرفوا فكانوا مع اولئك الذين بإزاء عدوهم، وجاء اولئك فصلى بهم رسول الله ﷺ ركعتين، فكانت للناس ركعتين ركعتين وللنبي ﷺ اربع ركعات (2).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) fought (the tribe of) Muharib Khasafah at Nakhl. They found an opportunity when the Muslims were off their guard, and a man from among them named Ghawrath bin al-Harith suddenly stood over the blessed head of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with a drawn sword and said: "Who will save you from me now?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said (without any fear): "Allah." As soon as he heard this, the sword fell from his hand. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) picked up that same sword and asked him: "Now who will save you (from me)?" He said (humbly): "Be the best of those who have the upper hand (and show mercy)." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you bear witness that there is no true god except Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah?" The Bedouin replied: "I pledge to you that I will neither fight you nor side with people who wage war against you." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) let him go. When he reached his people, he said: "I have come to you from the one who is the best of all people." Then when the time of prayer came, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led the prayer of fear (salat al-khawf). The Companions were divided into two groups: one group was lined up facing the enemy, and the other group was praying with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) led the group with him in two rak'ahs, then they left their place and went to face the enemy. Then the other group came, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led them too in two rak'ahs. Thus the Companions prayed two rak'ahs each, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed four rak'ahs in total. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.
