Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) relates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by some people in a gathering who had drawn swords and were passing them to one another without sheathing them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Did I not forbid you from this? If one of you has drawn a sword, let him first sheathe it and then give it to his brother." (Al-Haythami says:) I say: Part of this narration is in the Sahih.
Ahmad and al-Bazzar recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy).
