[4518] 19 - (1729) Iyās bin Salamah narrated that his father said: We went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ on a campaign, and we faced hardship, so much so that we thought of slaughtering some of our mounts. The Prophet of Allâh ﷺ ordered us to gather together our provisions, then we spread out a sheet of leather and he gathered together the people's provisions on that leather sheet. I measured it and found that it was the size of a spot where a goat could sit, and we were fourteen hundred men. We ate until we were all had our hunger satisfied, then we filled our bags. The Prophet of Allâh ﷺ said: "Is there any water for Wudû?" A man brought a small bucket in which there was a drop of water, and poured it into a bowl. We all did Wudû, using water plentifully, fourteen hundred men. Then after that eight men came and said: Is there any water for Wudû? And the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "(The water for) Wudû' is finished."

19 - (1729) حَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ الْأَزْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُحَمَّدٍ الْيَمَامِيَّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِيَاسُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةٍ، فَأَصَابَنَا جَهْدٌ حَتَّى هَمَمْنَا أَنْ نَنْحَرَ بَعْضَ ظَهْرِنَا، فَأَمَرَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَمَعْنَا مَزَاوِدَنَا، فَبَسَطْنَا لَهُ نِطَعًا، فَاجْتَمَعَ زَادُ الْقَوْمِ عَلَى النِّطَعِ، قَالَ: فَتَطَاوَلْتُ لِأَحْزِرَهُ كَمْ هُوَ؟ فَحَزَرْتُهُ كَرَبْضَةِ الْعَنْزِ ، وَنَحْنُ أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً، قَالَ: فَأَكَلْنَا حَتَّى شَبِعْنَا جَمِيعًا، ثُمَّ حَشَوْنَا جُرُبَنَا، فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَهَلْ مِنْ وَضُوءٍ؟» قَالَ: فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ بِإِدَاوَةٍ لَهُ فِيهَا نُطْفَةٌ، فَأَفْرَغَهَا فِي قَدَحٍ، فَتَوَضَّأْنَا كُلُّنَا نُدَغْفِقُهُ دَغْفَقَةً أَرْبَعَ عَشْرَةَ مِائَةً، قَالَ: ثُمَّ جَاءَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ ثَمَانِيَةٌ، فَقَالُوا: هَلْ مِنْ طَهُورٍ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَرِغَ الْوَضُوءُ»
