It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, who says that one night the people of Madinah were overcome by fear and panic. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, borrowed the horse of Sayyiduna Abu Talhah, may Allah be pleased with him, which was called Mandub, and rode it forward. When he, peace and blessings be upon him, returned, he said: "We did not see anything, and we found this horse to be like a sea."
