THE PEOPLE OF Madinah become frightened one night because they had heard some noise.
They went in the direction of the sound and found the Holy Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) returning, having investigated the disturbance alone. He had a sword around his neck.
We learn that a Muslim must show bravery. He should be in the service of the community even with regards to policing and the eradication of crime. He should go prepared by arming himself, etc. within the framework of the law.
Life becomes a pleasure when we bring every act of the Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) alive.
