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  

The Prophet ﷺ was the best among the people (both in shape and character) and was the most generous of them, and was the bravest of them.

(At that time) he was riding a horse belonging to Abu Talha and it was naked without a saddle, and he was carrying a sword slung at his neck. The Prophet ﷺ said, "I found it (the horse) like a sea, or, it is the sea indeed."

"The Prophet ﷺ was the nicest person among the people, the most generous of the people, and the bravest among the people." He said: "The inhabitants of Al-Madinah became freightened one night upon hearing a loud noise." He said: "So the Prophet ﷺ met them upon an unsaddled horse belonging to Abu Talhah, with a sword hanging around his neck. He said: 'I found him to be (quick) like the sea.'" - meaning the horse.  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مِنْ أَجْرَإِ النَّاسِ وَأَجْوَدِ النَّاسِ وَأَشْجَعِ النَّاسِ قَالَ وَقَدْ فَزِعَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ لَيْلَةً سَمِعُوا صَوْتًا قَالَ فَتَلَقَّاهُمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْىٍ وَهُوَ مُتَقَلِّدٌ سَيْفَهُ فَقَالَ لَمْ تُرَاعُوا لَمْ تُرَاعُوا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَجَدْتُهُ بَحْرًا يَعْنِي الْفَرَسَ  

“He was the best of people, the most generous of people, the most courageous of people. The people of Al-Madinah became alarmed one night, and he was the first of them to investigate the noise and din. He was riding a horse belonging to Abu Talhah, bareback, with no saddle. His sword was hanging from his neck and he was saying: ‘O people, do not be afraid,’ sending them back to their houses. Then he said of the horse, ‘We found it like a sea,’ or, ‘It is a sea.’”*  

ذُكِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ كَانَ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ وَكَانَ أَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ وَكَانَ أَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ وَلَقَدْ فَزِعَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ لَيْلَةً فَانْطَلَقُوا قِبَلَ الصَّوْتِ فَتَلَقَّاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَدْ سَبَقَهُمْ إِلَى الصَّوْتِ وَهُوَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْىٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ سَرْجٌ فِي عُنُقِهِ السَّيْفُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ لَنْ تُرَاعُوا يَرُدُّهُمْ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْفَرَسِ وَجَدْنَاهُ بَحْرًا أَوْ إِنَّهُ لَبَحْرٌ قَالَ حَمَّادٌ وَحَدَّثَنِي ثَابِتٌ أَوْ غَيْرُهُ قَالَ كَانَ فَرَسًا لأَبِي طَلْحَةَ يُبَطَّأُ فَمَا سُبِقَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the best among people, the bravest among people, and the most generous among people. There was a commotion in the city, so the people went out before the sound and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ faced them, preceded them, and calmed the commotion on a horse that belonged to Abu Talha, which had no saddle on its neck and a sword. He said, "Why didn't you wait?" He said to the horse, "We found it like a sea or indeed it is a sea."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ وَأَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ وَأَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ كَانَ فَزَعٌ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَخَرَجَ النَّاسُ قِبَلَ الصَّوْتِ فَاسْتَقْبَلَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ سَبَقَهُمْ فَاسْتَبْرَأَ الْفَزَعَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لِأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْيٍ مَا عَلَيْهِ سَرْجٌ فِي عُنُقِهِ السَّيْفُ فَقَالَ لَمْ تُرَاعُوا وَقَالَ لِلْفَرَسِ وَجَدْنَاهُ بَحْرًا أَوْ إِنَّهُ لَبَحْرٌ  

There was nothing to be afraid of, and he also said: We found it (this horse) like a torrent of water (indicating its swift-footedness), whereas the horse had been slow before that time. (Using translation from Muslim 2307a)   

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَشْجَعَ النَّاسِ وَأَحْسَنَ النَّاسِ وَأَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ قَالَ فُزِّعَ أَهْلُ الْمَدِينَةِ لَيْلَةً قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ النَّاسُ قِبَلَ الصَّوْتِ فَتَلَقَّاهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَدْ سَبَقَهُمْ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَمْ تُرَاعُوا؟ قَالَ وَهُوَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لِأَبِي طَلْحَةَ عُرْيٍ فِي عُنُقِهِ السَّيْفُ فَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ لِلنَّاسِ لَمْ تُرَاعُوا؟ قَالَ وَقَالَ إِنَّا وَجَدْنَاهُ بَحْرًا أَوْ إِنَّهُ لَبَحْرٌ يَعْنِي الْفَرَسَ
