Mukhtasar Bukhari

Narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he participated in a jihad towards Najd with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) returned, he also returned with him, and they stopped for noon in a forest where there were many thorny trees. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) dismounted there, and the people dispersed throughout the forest and rested in the shade of the trees. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) rested under a dense acacia tree and hung his sword on it. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We had barely slept for a short while when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called out to us. We came to him and saw that a Bedouin was sitting with him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "He drew my sword while I was sleeping. Meanwhile, I woke up and saw the naked sword in his hand. He began to say to me, 'Now tell me, who can save you from my hand?' I replied, 'Allah can save me.' So here he is, now sitting." But the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not punish him.

Narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led his companions in the prayer of fear during his seventh expedition, that is, the expedition of Dhat al-Riqa.

Narrated Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him): We went out on an expedition with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and we had only one camel for six of us. We would take turns riding it. Our feet became wounded and my feet split open and my toenails fell off, so we would wrap our feet with strips of cloth. That battle was named Dhat ar-Riqa‘ (the battle of patches) for this reason (i.e., the battle of patches and rags), because we wrapped our feet with strips of cloth due to their being split open.

Sayyiduna Sahl bin Abi Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him), who was present with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) in the battle of Dhat al-Riqa’, described the prayer of fear (i.e., the prayer performed in fear). One group formed a row with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and another group faced the enemy. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led those with him in one rak‘ah, then he stood while they (the followers) completed their prayer and then went to face the enemy. Then the other group came, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) led them in the second rak‘ah, which was remaining for him, then he remained seated while they completed their prayer, and then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said the salam with them.
