Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was the bravest, the most generous, and the most courageous of all people. One night, the people of Madinah were alarmed; they had heard a sound. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), with a sword hanging from him, mounted Abu Talhah’s bareback horse and reached the people. He said: “Do not worry, do not worry.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “I found the horse to be like the sea in its speed.” __REF_N__ Imam Tirmidhi says: This hadith is authentic.
