The Prophet's (PBUH) Vigilance

SUMMARY: A person observed the Prophet (PBUH) lifting arrows as if he was about to pierce his eyes.

Anas b. Malik reported that a person peeped in some of the holes (in the doors) of Allah's Messenger (and he found him) standing up (lifting) an arrow or some arrows. The narrator said: I perceived as if Allah's Messenger was going to pierce (his eyes).
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَأَبُو كَامِلٍ فُضَيْلُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَحْيَى وَأَبِي كَامِلٍ - قَالَ يَحْيَى أَخْبَرَنَا وَقَالَ الآخَرَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ، اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، اطَّلَعَ مِنْ بَعْضِ حُجَرِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ بِمِشْقَصٍ أَوْ مَشَاقِصَ فَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ يَخْتِلُهُ لِيَطْعُنَهُ
