"عَنْ جَابِر قَالَ: عَطِشَ النَّاسُ وَهُمْ بِالحُدَيْبِيَةِ حَتَّى كَادَتْ أنْ تَنْقَطِعَ أَعَنَاقُهُمْ منْ شِدَّةِ الْعَطَشِ، فَفَزِعُوا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، وَقَالُوا: هَلَكْنَا يَارَسُولَ اللهِ! قَالَ: كَلاَّ لَنْ تَهْلِكُوا وَأَنَا فيكُمْ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِى تَوْرٍ () كَانَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ فِيهِ قَرِيبٌ مِنْ مُدٍّ مَاء فَفَرَّجَ فِيهِ أصَابِعَهُ، فَوَالَّذِى أكْرَمَهُ بِنُبُوَتِهِ لرَأيْتُ الْمَاءَ يَفُورُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أصَابِعهِ كَالْعُيُونِ الَّتِى تَجْرِى، فَقَالَ: حَىَّ ( ) بِاسْم اللهِ، فَشَرِبْنَا، وَسَقَيْنَا الركِّابَ، ثُمَّ عَمَدْنَا إِلَى الْمَزَادِ ( ) وَالْقِرَبِ، فَمَلأنَاهَا حَتَّى صَدَرْنَا، فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَشْهَدُ أنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ الله، وَأَنّى نَبِىٌّ وَرَسُولُهُ، لاَ يَقُولُهَا عَبْدٌ بِصِدْقِ قَلب وَلِسَانِهِ إِلاَّ دَخَل الْجَنَّةَ، قيلَ: كَم كنتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ؟ أرْبَعَ عَشَرَة مِائَة، وَلَوْ شَهِدَ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ أهْلُ مِنًى لَوَسِعَتْهُم، وَكفَاهُمْ".

"From Jābir, who said: The people became thirsty while they were at al-Ḥudaybiyyah, until their necks almost broke from the severity of the thirst. So they rushed to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: 'We are destroyed, O Messenger of Allah!' He said: 'Never! You will not be destroyed while I am among you.' Then he put his hand into a basin () that was in front of him, containing about a mudd of water, and spread his fingers in it. By the One who honoured him with prophethood, I saw the water gushing from between his fingers like flowing springs. Then he said: 'Come ( ) in the name of Allah.' So we drank, and gave our mounts to drink, then we went to the water-skins ( ) and the waterskins and filled them until we departed. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled, then said: 'I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and that I am His Prophet and Messenger. No servant says it with sincerity of heart and tongue except that he enters Paradise.' It was asked: 'How many of you were there that day?' He said: 'Fourteen hundred. And had the people of Minā been present that day, it would have sufficed them and been enough for them.'".
