English translation

Hurairah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'While I was sleeping, I saw myself at a well by which there was a bucket. I drew as much (water) as Allah willed from it, then the son of Abü Quhâfah (i.e., Abü Bakr As- $iddIq) took it and drew a bucket or two with some weakness, may Allah forgive him. Then it changed into a large bucket, and the son of Al-Khattâb took it, and I have never seen any leader among the people draw water as vigorously as 'Umar bin Al-Khattâb; (he drew so much water) that the people drank their fill and then they stayed there for a while."

Arabic text

17 - (2392) حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيِّبِ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «بَيْنَا أَنَا نَائِمٌ رَأَيْتُنِي عَلَى قَلِيبٍ، عَلَيْهَا دَلْوٌ، فَنَزَعْتُ مِنْهَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَهَا ابْنُ أَبِي قُحَافَةَ فَنَزَعَ بِهَا ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ، وَفِي نَزْعِهِ، وَاللهُ يَغْفِرُ لَهُ، ضَعْفٌ، ثُمَّ اسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا، فَأَخَذَهَا ابْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا مِنَ النَّاسِ يَنْزِعُ نَزْعَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، حَتَّى ضَرَبَ النَّاسُ بِعَطَنٍ»
