Trials and Fierce Battles (Kitab Al-Fitan Wa Al-Malahim)

ENGLISH

Narrated Sa'd ibn AbuWaqqas:

I asked: Messenger of Allah! tell me if someone enters my house and extends his hands to kill me (what should I do?) The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) replied: Be like the two sons of Adam. The narrator Yazid (ibn Khalid) then recited the verse: "If you dost stretch they hand against me to slay me." [5:28]
