One night before the arrival of the troops Ahzab to Medina, so Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas story, thus gripping the state. It was exactly what was described God; no longer keep our vision and heart felt suffocating rise into the esophagus (Surat Al-Ahzab verse 10).
That night I woke up and remembered the Prophet. On their own, I went, then vigil near his residence. When I was there, the Prophet said in a voice somewhat hardened, "Is there a righteous man who is willing to keep our dinner?"
So I immediately replied, "Labbaika Rasoolullah yaa! Here Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas just for you!" Truly my favorite of his word is the word 'righteous man', may it be a prayer for myself.
He came to see me with a sincere smile. After giving direction and order for counsel, he reentered. In the wee hours, suddenly I heard a loud roar from the other end of town. Rushing kunaiki horses and kutuju direction of the sound. I rode my horse. Up in a dark place, from the opposite direction came a shadow horsemen. I shall bow and my arrow. When approached, I gasped. It turned out he was the Messenger of Allah! I asked, "Where are you, O Prophet? Really I am concerned over the
sound of that! I'm afraid, the enemy troops in large numbers coming to
attack Medina. Please go home, and let me check it out"
Prophet smiled at me and said, "Calm yourself, O Sa'ad. I've checked it. And that's just the sound of the desert wind"
I was flabbergasted, amazed and embarrassed. I, the watchmen, had been preceded by the Prophet who guarded in examining the possibility of danger.

Request guarded it turns out educational meaning. So fabulous; This leader is the bearer of peace, not only in words, but with actions based on sincerity. And, the great affection that made his whole life terabdi to minister, did not hinder him in educating his friend.
