Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah:That he fought in a Ghazwa towards Najd along with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) returned, he too, returned along with him. The time of the afternoon nap overtook them when they were in a valley full of thorny trees. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) dismounted and the people dispersed amongst the thorny trees, seeking the shade of the trees. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took shelter under a Samura tree and hung his sword on it. We slept for a while when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) suddenly called us, and we went to him, to find a bedouin sitting with him. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "This (bedouin) took my sword out of its sheath while I was asleep. When I woke up, the naked sword was in his hand and he said to me, 'Who can save you from me?, I replied, 'Allah.' Now here he is sitting." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did not punish him (for that).

Sahih
It is related from Jabir that he went on an expedition with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, in the direction of Najd. It is related from Jabir ibn 'Abdullah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that he went on an expedition with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, in the direction of Najd. When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, returned, he returned with him. Midday overtook them in a valley with a lot of large thorn-trees in it. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, alighted and the people split up to seek the shade of the trees. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, alighted under an acacia tree and hung his sword on it." Jabir said, "We went to sleep and then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, called us and we came. There was a bedouin sitting with him and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'This one unsheathed my sword while I was asleep. I woke up and he had it unsheathed in his hand and he said to me, "Who will protect you from me?" I said, "Allah." Here he is sitting.' Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did not punish him."
