Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلْتُ الْجَنَّةَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِنَهَرٍ يَجْرِي حَافَّتَاهُ خِيَامُ اللُّؤْلُؤِ فَضَرَبْتُ بِيَدِي إِلَى مَا يَجْرِي فِيهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ مِسْكٌ أَذْفَرُ قُلْتُ يَا جِبْرِيلُ مَا هَذَا قَالَ هَذَا الْكَوْثَرُ الَّذِي أَعْطَاكَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
English Translation
Abdullah ibn Bakr told us, Humayd told us, from Anas, who said: The Messenger of God, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "I entered Paradise, and there I found a river flowing with tents of pearl along its banks. I struck my hand into what was flowing in it, and there it was — musk of fragrant scent. I said: 'O Gabriel, what is this?' He said: 'This is al-Kawthar, which God, Mighty and Majestic, has given you.'"
