[7519] (3013) (Jâbir said:) “Then we came to the camp, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: “O Jâbir, call (the people to perform) Wudû.” I said: “Come and perform Wudû’, come and perform Wudû’, come and perform Wudû.” I said: “O Messenger of Allâh, I cannot find a drop of water in the camp.” But a man among the Anshâr used to cool water for the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ in an old waterskin of his, that was hanging on a palm tree branch. He said to me: “Go to so-and-so the son of so-and-so, the Anshâr, and see if there is anything in his waterskin.” I went to him and looked in it, and I did not find anything but a drop of water on the mouth of the waterskin, and if I had poured it, it would have been absorbed. I came to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and said: “O Messenger of Allâh, I did not find anything but a drop of water on the mouth of the waterskin, and if I had poured it, it would have been absorbed.” He said: “Go and bring it to me.” So I brought it, and he took it in his hand and started to say something that I did not understand, and he pressed it with his hand. Then he gave it to me and said: “O Jâbir, call for a tub.” I called for the tub of the camp and it was brought to me, and I placed it in front of him. Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ put his hand in the tub like this, - spreading out his fingers, then he put it on the bottom of the tub and said: "O Jâbir, take (the waterskin) and pour it on me (i.e., hands), and say: 'In the Name of Allâh.'" So I poured it onto him and said, "In the Name of Allâh," and I saw the water gushing out between the fingers of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. Then the tub gushed water until it filled up. He said: "O Jâbir, call those who need water." The people came and drank their fill, then I said: "Is there anyone left who needs it?" Then the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ lifted his hand from the tub and it was full.

(3013) قَالَ: فَأَتَيْنَا الْعَسْكَرَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا جَابِرُ نَادِ بِوَضُوءٍ» فَقُلْتُ: أَلَا وَضُوءَ؟ أَلَا وَضُوءَ؟ أَلَا وَضُوءَ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا وَجَدْتُ فِي الرَّكْبِ مِنْ قَطْرَةٍ، وَكَانَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يُبَرِّدُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَاءَ فِي أَشْجَابٍ لَهُ، عَلَى حِمَارَةٍ مِنْ جَرِيدٍ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ لِيَ: «انْطَلِقْ إِلَى فُلَانِ ابْنِ فُلَانٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ، فَانْظُرْ هَلْ فِي أَشْجَابِهِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟» قَالَ: فَانْطَلَقْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَنَظَرْتُ فِيهَا فَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهَا إِلَّا قَطْرَةً فِي عَزْلَاءِ شَجْبٍ مِنْهَا، لَوْ أَنِّي أُفْرِغُهُ لَشَرِبَهُ يَابِسُهُ، فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي لَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهَا إِلَّا قَطْرَةً فِي عَزْلَاءِ شَجْبٍ مِنْهَا، لَوْ أَنِّي أُفْرِغُهُ لَشَرِبَهُ يَابِسُهُ، قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَأْتِنِي بِهِ» فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهِ، فَأَخَذَهُ بِيَدِهِ فَجَعَلَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِشَيْءٍ لَا أَدْرِي مَا هُوَ، وَيَغْمِزُهُ بِيَدَيْهِ، ثُمَّ أَعْطَانِيهِ، فَقَالَ: «يَا جَابِرُ نَادِ بِجَفْنَةٍ» فَقُلْتُ: يَا جَفْنَةَ الرَّكْبِ فَأُتِيتُ بِهَا تُحْمَلُ، فَوَضَعْتُهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: بِيَدِهِ فِي الْجَفْنَةِ هَكَذَا، فَبَسَطَهَا وَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ، ثُمَّ وَضَعَهَا فِي قَعْرِ الْجَفْنَةِ، وَقَالَ: «خُذْ يَا جَابِرُ فَصُبَّ عَلَيَّ، وَقُلْ بِاسْمِ اللهِ» فَصَبَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقُلْتُ: بِاسْمِ اللهِ، فَرَأَيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَتَفُوَّرُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ فَارَتْ الْجَفْنَةُ وَدَارَتْ حَتَّى امْتَلَأَتْ، فَقَالَ: «يَا جَابِرُ نَادِ مَنْ كَانَ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ بِمَاءٍ» قَالَ فَأَتَى النَّاسُ فَاسْتَقَوْا حَتَّى رَوُوا، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: هَلْ بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ لَهُ حَاجَةٌ؟ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدَهُ مِنَ الْجَفْنَةِ وَهِيَ مَلْأَى
