The Prophet’s ﷺ bravery during a night alarm in Madinah

The Prophet ﷺ was the best of people and the bravest of people. One night the people of Madinah were alarmed, so they went out toward the sound. The Prophet ﷺ met them, having already investigated the matter, while he was on an unsaddled horse belonging to Abu Talhah, with the sword around his neck, and he was saying: "Do not be frightened, do not be frightened." Then he said: "We found him to be a sea," or he said: "Indeed, he is a sea."

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ وَأَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ، وَلَقَدْ فَزِعَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ لَيْلَةً، فَخَرَجُوا نَحْوَ الصَّوْتِ، فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَقَدِ اسْتَبْرَأَ الْخَبَرَ، وَهْوَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْىٍ، وَفِي عُنُقِهِ السَّيْفُ، وَهْوَ يَقُولُ: «لَمْ تُرَاعُوا، لَمْ تُرَاعُوا»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «وَجَدْنَاهُ بَحْرًا»، أَوْ قَالَ: «إِنَّهُ لَبَحْرٌ».
