    وَعَن أنس بن مَالك قَالَ جَاءَ جِبْرِيلُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ جَالس حَزِين وَقد تخضب بِالدَّمِ من فعل أهل مَكَّة من قُرَيْش فَقَالَ جِبْرِيل يَا رَسُول الله هَل تحب أَن أريك آيَةً قَالَ نَعَمْ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى شَجَرَةٍ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ فَقَالَ ادْعُ بِهَا فَدَعَا بِهَا فَجَاءَتْ وَقَامَت بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ مُرْهَا فَلْتَرْجِعْ فَأَمَرَهَا فَرَجَعَتْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حسبي حسبي. رَوَاهُ الدَّارمِيّ

    Anas told that Gabriel came to the Prophet when he was sitting grieved, smeared with blood as a result of what the people of Mecca had done[*], and said, “Messenger of God, would you like me to show you a sign?” When he agreed, Gabriel looked at a tree behind him and said, “Call it.” He did so, and it came and stood in front of him. He then said, “Order it to go back,” and when he had done so and it had gone back God’s messenger said, “That is enough for me, that is enough for me.” * Mirqat , v, 474, relates this to the injuries the Prophet suffered at the battle of Uhud Darimi transmitted it.

    He told that the Prophet was brought a vessel when he was in az-Zaura’, and when he put his hand in the vessel the water began to spout between his fingers, and the people performed ablution. Qatada said he asked Anas how many were present, and he replied that there were three hundred, or, about three hundred. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: كُنَّا نَعُدُّ الْآيَاتِ بَرَكَةً وَأَنْتُمْ تَعُدُّونَهَا تَخْوِيفًا كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَفَرٍ فَقَلَّ الْمَاءُ فَقَالَ: «اطْلُبُوا فَضْلَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ» فَجَاءُوا بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ قَلِيلٌ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «حَيَّ على الطَّهورِ الْمُبَارك وَالْبركَة من الله» فَلَقَد رَأَيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَنْبُعُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَقَد كُنَّا نَسْمَعُ تَسْبِيحَ الطَّعَامِ وَهُوَ يُؤْكَلُ. رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ

    `Abdallah b. Mas’ud said: We used to reckon the signs[*] as a blessing, but you reckon them as something to cause fear. Once when we were on a journey with God’s messenger and there was little water he said, “Look if there is any water left.” They brought him a vessel containing a little water, and when he had put his hand into it, he said, “Come to the blessed cleansing medium and the blessing from God.” I have seen the water spouting between God’s messenger’s fingers, and we have been hearing the glorifying of God over food when it was being eaten. *i.e., the miracles. Bukhari transmitted it.

    Abu Qatada said: God’s messenger addressed us saying, “You will travel all evening and all night and come to water to-morrow, if God wills.’ The people then set off not turning round to one another. Abu Qatada said: While God’s messenger was travelling, when the middle of the night came, he turned aside from the road, laid down his head and said, “Keep watch for us for our time of prayer.” Now the first to awake was God’s messenger when he felt the sun on his back, and he said “Mount.” We did so and travelled till the sun had risen in the sky, when he dismounted, called for an ablution vessel. I had containing some water and performed ablution from it to a less extent than usual. Some water remained in it, and he said, `Keep your ablution vessel for us, for it will be something to talk about. Bilal then gave the call to prayer, and God’s messenger prayed two rak`as , after which he prayed the morning prayer. He then mounted and we mounted along with him and reached the people when the day had advanced and everything was hot. They were saying, “Messenger of God, we are perishing from thirst,” to which he replied, “You will not perish.” He called for the ablution vessel, began to pour out water, and Abu Qatada[*] was supplying them with water. No sooner did the people see that there was water in the ablution vessel then they crowded around it, so God’s messenger said, “Behave in an orderly manner, for every one of you will get a supply of water.” They did so, and God’s messenger began to pour and I to supply them with water till only he and I were left. He then poured and told me to drink, but I replied, “I shall not drink till you do so, messenger of God.” He said, “The one who supplies water for people comes last,” so I drank and then he drank. Then the people came to the watering-place in comfort, having had a supply of water. *I have retained the Arabic construction here. Abu Qatada is telling the story and elsewhere uses the first-person pronoun when making reference to himself, Muslim transmitted it thus in his Sahih , and it is told similarly in al-Humaidi’s book and in Jami’ al-usul . In al-Masabih the words “in drinking” are added after “comes last.”

    وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ غزوةِ تَبُوك أصابَ النَّاس مجاعةٌ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ادْعُهُمْ بِفَضْلِ أَزْوَادِهِمْ ثُمَّ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهًا بِالْبَرَكَةِ فَقَالَ: نعم قَالَ فَدَعَا بِنِطَعٍ فَبُسِطَ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِفَضْلِ أَزْوَادِهِمْ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَجِيءُ بِكَفِّ ذُرَةٍ وَيَجِيءُ الْآخَرُ بِكَفِّ تَمْرٍ وَيَجِيءُ الْآخَرُ بِكِسْرَةٍ حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ عَلَى النِّطَعِ شَيْءٌ يَسِيرٌ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْبَرَكَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ خُذُوا فِي أوعيتكم فَأَخَذُوا فِي أَوْعِيَتِهِمْ حَتَّى مَا تَرَكُوا فِي الْعَسْكَر وعَاء إِلا ملؤوه قَالَ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَفَضَلَتْ فَضْلَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَا يَلْقَى اللَّهَ بِهِمَا عَبْدٌ غَيْرُ شاكٍّ فيحجبَ عَن الْجنَّة» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

    Abu Huraira said: On the day of the expedition of Tabuk the people were afflicted by hunger, and `Umar said, “Messenger of God, tell them to bring what is left over of their provisions and pray God for a blessing for them on them.” He agreed, then called for a leather cloth and it was spread out. He then called for the provisions which were left, and one brought a handful of millet, another a handful of dates, another crumbs until a small quantity was collected on the leather cloth. God’s messenger then prayed for a blessing, after which he said, “Take a supply in your receptacles.” They did so until they did not leave a receptacle in the army which they did not fill. They then ate till they were satisfied, and there was something over. God’s messenger then said, “I testify that there is no god but God and that I am God’s messenger. No one who meets God and affirms the two testimonies without harbouring any doubts will not be kept away from paradise.” Muslim transmitted it.

    Anas said: When the Prophet was newly married to Zainab, my mother Umm Sulaim took some dates, clarified butter and curd, and made hais [1]. When she had prepared it in a cooking-pot she said, “Take this to God’s messenger, Anas, say your mother has sent this to him along with her good wishes, and tell him this is a small gift to him from us.” When I had gone and repeated this, he told me to put it down, then said, “Go and invite so and so, so and so, and so and so (naming some men) to come to me, and invite those whom you meet to come to me.” I invited those he named and those I met, and when I returned the house was crowded with people[2]. (Anas was asked how many there were and replied that there were about three hundred.) I saw the Prophet put his hand on that bit of hais and say such words as God wished. He then began to invite them to eat in groups of ten, and he was saying to them, “Mention God’s name, and let each man eat from the place nearest him.” When they had eaten to their satisfaction one party went out and another entered till they had all eaten. He told me to remove the food and I did so, and I do not know whether there was more of it when I set it down or when I removed it. Hais (special dish prepared from dried yoghourt, butter and dates). This is what the Arabic says, but in view of what follows about the people being admitted in tens, it probably means that the house was surrounded by a great throng. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    Jabir said: I went on an expedition with God’s messenger on a camel used for drawing water which had grown weary and could scarcely go on. The Prophet came up beside me and asked what was the matter with my camel, and when I told him it had grown weary, he went behind it and urged it on. He then made supplication for it and it kept going in front of the other camels. He asked me how I found my camel and I replied that it was fine, having received the benefit of his blessing. He asked if I would sell it to him for a wuqiya , and I agreed on condition that I might ride it till we came to Medina. When God’s messenger came to Medina I took the camel to him in the morning, and he gave me its price, then returned the animal to me. (Bukhari and Muslim.)

    Abu Humaid as-Sa`idi said : We went out with God’s messenger on the expedition to Tabuk, and in the wadi al-Qura we came to a garden belonging to a woman. God’s messenger told us to estimate its amount and we did so, and God’s messenger estimated it at ten camel loads. He told the woman to calculate the amount and have it ready for our return should God will, and then we set off. When we came to Tabuk God’s messenger said, “You will have a violent wind to-night, so no one must get up while it is blowing and those who have camels must hobble them firmly.” A violent wind blew, and a man got up and was carried by the wind and thrown on the two mountains of Tayy[*]. We then went on till we came to the wadi al-Qura., and when God’s messenger asked the woman how much the fruit in her garden had amounted to, she replied that it was ten camel loads. *Aia’ and Salma.

    Abu Dharr reported God’s messenger as saying, “You will conquer Egypt, which is a land in which the qirat is mentioned. When you conquer it treat its inhabitants well, for protection and blood-relationship apply to them (or he said, protection and marriage relationship)[1]. But when you see two men quarrelling in a brickwork leave[2] it.” Abu Dharr said he saw `Abd ar-Rahman b. Shurahbil b. Hasana and his brother Rabi’a quarrelling in a brickwork, and so left it. 1. The reference is to Abraham’s son Ishmael having Hagar as mother, and to Mariya the Copt who was sent to the Prophet. 2. ‘You’ in this sentence and the preceding one is plural, but `leave’ is singular, addressed particularly to Abu Dharr. Muslim transmitted it.

    Hudhaifa reported the Prophet as saying, “Among my companions (a version has, my people) there will be twelve hypocrites who will neither enter paradise nor experience its odour till a camel goes through a needle’s eye. Eight of them will be repelled by an internal ulcer (a burning, fiery wick) which will appear on their shoulders and extend into their breasts.” Muslim transmitted it.
