حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَ إِلَى السِّقَايَةِ فَاسْتَسْقَى، فَقَالَ الْعَبَّاسُ: يَا فَضْلُ، اذْهَبْ إِلَى أُمِّكَ، فَأْتِ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَرَابٍ مِنْ عِنْدِهَا، فَقَالَ: اسْقِنِي، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّهُمْ يَجْعَلُونَ أَيْدِيَهُمْ فِيهِ، فَقَالَ: اسْقِنِي، فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ أَتَى زَمْزَمَ، وَهُمْ يَسْقُونَ وَيَعْمَلُونَ فِيهَا، فَقَالَ: اعْمَلُوا فَإِنَّكُمْ عَلَى عَمَلٍ صَالِحٍ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " لَوْلَا أَنْ تُغْلَبُوا لَنَزَعْتُ حَتَّى أَضَعَ الْحَبْلَ عَلَى هَذِهِ " - يَعْنِي عَاتِقَهُ - وَأَشَارَ إِلَى عَاتِقِهِ

✧ That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to the water provision area and asked for water. Al-'Abbas said, 'O Fadl, go to your mother and bring the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a drink from her.' He said, 'Give me to drink.' He said, 'O Messenger of Allah, they put their hands in it.' He said, 'Give me to drink.' So he drank from it. Then he came to Zamzam while they were providing water and working there. He said, 'Work, for you are upon a righteous deed.' Then he said, 'Were it not that you would be overpowered, I would draw until I placed the rope upon this' - meaning his shoulder - and he pointed to his shoulder.
