English translation

[6196] 19 - (2393) It was narrated from 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "I saw as if I was drawing water in a leather bucket from a well, then Abū Bakr came and drew a bucket or two, but he drew it in a manner that had some weakness in it, may Allāh forgive him. Then 'Umar came and asked for water, and it turned into a large bucket, and I have never seen any leader among the people draw water as vigorously. He went on drawing water until the people had drunk their fill, then they stayed there for a while."

Arabic text

19 - (2393) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ - قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: «أُرِيتُ كَأَنِّي أَنْزِعُ بِدَلْوِ بَكْرَةٍ عَلَى قَلِيبٍ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَنَزَعَ ذَنُوبًا أَوْ ذَنُوبَيْنِ، فَنَزَعَ نَزْعًا ضَعِيفًا وَاللهُ، تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى يَغْفِرُ لَهُ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُمَرُ، فَاسْتَقَى فَاسْتَحَالَتْ غَرْبًا، فَلَمْ أَرَ عَبْقَرِيًّا مِنَ النَّاسِ يَفْرِي فَرْيَهُ، حَتَّى رَوِيَ النَّاسُ وَضَرَبُوا الْعَطَنَ»
