حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ وأَزْهَرُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مِثْلُ مَا بَيْنَ نَاحِيَتَيْ حَوْضِي مِثْلُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَصَنْعَاءَ أَوْ مِثْلُ مَا بَيْنَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَعُمَانَ وَقَالَ أَزْهَرُ مِثْلُ وَقَالَ عُمَانَ.
English Translation
Anas ibn Malik reported: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) during Asr prayer, and a man among the people was looking for water for ablution but could not find any. Water was brought to the Messenger of Allah - the vessel was too small for him to spread his hand in it - so all the people performed ablution from it. He said: We asked Anas: "How many were you?" He said: "About eighty or more."
