Home Hadith Hadith 5425
I saw the drinking bowl of the Prophet (ﷺ) with Anas bin Malik, and it had been broken, and he had
mended it with silver plates. That drinking bowl was quite wide and made of Nadar wood, Anas said,
"I gave water to the Prophet (ﷺ) in that bowl more than so-and-so (for a long period)." Ibn Seereen said:
Around that bowl there was an iron ring, and Anas wanted to replace it with a silver or gold ring, but
Abu Talha said to him, "Do not change a thing that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) has made." So Anas left it as it
was.

An Arab lady was mentioned to the Prophet (ﷺ) so he asked Abu Usaid As-Sa`idi to send for her, and he
sent for her and she came and stayed in the castle of Bani Sa`ida. The Prophet (ﷺ) came out and went to
her and entered upon her. Behold, it was a lady sitting with a drooping head. When the Prophet (ﷺ) spoke
to her, she said, "I seek refuge with Allah from you." He said, "I grant you refuge from me." They said
to her, "Do you know who this is?" She said, "No." They said, "This is Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) who has come
to command your hand in marriage." She said, "I am very unlucky to lose this chance." Then the
Prophet and his companions went towards the shed of Bani Sa`ida and sat there. Then he said, "Give
us water, O Sahl!" So I took out this drinking bowl and gave them water in it. The sub-narrator added:
Sahl took out for us that very drinking bowl and we all drank from it. Later on `Umar bin `Abdul
`Aziz requested Sahl to give it to him as a present, and he gave it to him as a present.

I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) and the time for the `Asr prayer became due. We had no water with us except a
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.
