Sahih al-Bukhari 5426 (Book 74, Hadith 65)
little which was put in a vessel and was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) . He put his hand into it and spread out
his fingers and then said, “Come along! Hurry up! All those who want to perform ablution. The
blessing is from Allah.” I saw the water gushing out from his fingers. So the people performed the
ablution and drank, and I tried to drink more of that water (beyond my thirst and capacity), for I knew
that it was a blessing. The sub-narrator said: I asked Jabir, “How many persons were you then?” He
replied, “We were one-thousand four hundred men.” Salim said: Jabir said, 1500.
“ حَىَّ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْوُضُوءِ، الْبَرَكَةُ مِنَ اللَّهِ ”. فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَتَفَجَّرُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ، فَتَوَضَّأَ النَّاسُ وَشَرِبُوا، فَجَعَلْتُ لاَ آلُو مَا جَعَلْتُ فِي بَطْنِي مِنْهُ، فَعَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ بَرَكَةٌ. قُلْتُ لِجَابِرٍ كَمْ كُنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ أَلْفًا وَأَرْبَعَمِائَةٍ. تَابَعَهُ عَمْرٌو عَنْ جَابِرٍ. وَقَالَ حُصَيْنٌ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً. وَتَابَعَهُ سَعِيدُ بْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ.
