6578. Narrated Ibn ‘Abbās رضي الله عنهما: The word ‘Al-Kauthar’ means the abundant good which Allāh gave to him (Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ). Abū Bishr said: I said to Sa‘īd, “Some people claim that it (Al-Kauthar) is a river in Paradise.” Sa‘īd replied, “The river which is in Paradise is one item of that good which Allāh has bestowed upon him (Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ).” (See the footnote of H. 6575)
