Protecting the Prophet

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was looking for someone to guard him during the night, and Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas volunteered to do so out of fear for the Prophet's safety.

'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace he upon him) laid down on bed during one night on his arrival at Medina and said: Were there a pious person from amongst my Companions who should keep a watch for me durin. the night? She (A'isha) reported: We were in this state that we heard the clanging noise of arms. lie (the Holy Prophet) said: Who is it? He said: This is Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas. Allah's Messenger said to him: What brings you here? Thereupon he said: I harboured fear (lest any harm should come to) Allah's Messenger , so I came to serve as your sentinel. Allah's Messenger invoked blessings upon him. He then slept. This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Ibn Rumh with a slight variation of wording.
