Chapter: The Superiority Of Our Prophet (SAW) Over All Of Creation
Jabir b. Abdullah reported: We went along with Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) on an expedition towards Najd and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) found us in a valley abounding in thorny trees. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) stayed for rest under a tree and he suspended his sword by one of its branches under which he was taking rest. The persons scattered in the valley and they also began to take rest under the shade of trees, and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: A person came to me while I was asleep and he took hold of the sword. I woke up and found him standing upon my head and I had hardly become alert (and saw) that the sword was in his hand. And he said: Who can protect you from me? I said: Allah. He again said: Who can protect you from me? I said: Allah. He put his sword in the sheath (and you can see) this man sitting here. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) did not in any way touch him.
Jabir b. 'Abdullah al-Ansiri, who was one amongst the Companions of Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ), reported that he went on an expedition along with Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) towards Najd and Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) stayed there, and when Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came back he also came back along with him. They, for one day, stayed for rest; the rest of the hadith is the same.
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported: We went along with Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and as we reached the place Dhat-ur-Riqa'; the rest of the hadith is the same, but there is no mention of the word that Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) did not harm him.
