Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) said: "The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) prohibited from presenting a drawn sword to another."[Abu Dawud and At-Tirmidhi].
Commentary:
If a naked sword drops from one's hand, it can injure one's hand, foot or any part of the body. Similar is the case of a sharp knife or any other similar weapon and tool. One should never give it to anyone from its blade side. When we study such things, we are really wonderstruck to see the care which Islam has taken to respect humanity.
