English Translation

'Affan narrated to us, Hammad narrated to us, from Thabit, from Anas ibn Malik, who said: The time for prayer came, and the neighbors of the mosque got up to perform ablution, but there remained between seventy and eighty people whose homes were far away. So the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, called for a basin containing water—it was not full—and put his fingers in it, and began pouring it upon them, saying, "Perform ablution," until all of them had performed ablution, and there remained in the basin about what had been in it, though they numbered from seventy to a hundred.
