حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خُلَيْدٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو تَوْبَةَ قَالَ: نَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ سَلَّامٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَلَّامٍ، يَقُولُ: حَدَّثَنِي عَامِرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ الْبِكَالِيُّ. أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُتْبَةَ بْنَ عَبْدٍ السُّلَمِيَّ قَالَ:

جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ: مَا حَوْضُكَ الَّذِي تُحَدِّثُ عَنْهُ ؟ قَالَ: " كَمَا بَيْنَ الْبَيْضَاءِ إِلَى بُصْرَى، يَمُدُّنِي اللهُ فِيهِ بِكُرَاعٍ لَا يَدْرِي إِنْسَانٌ مِمَّنْ خُلِقَ أَيْنَ طَرَفَيْهِ ". فَكَبَّرَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ، فَقَالَ: أَمَّا الْحَوْضُ فَيَرِدُ عَلَيْهِ فُقَرَاءُ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ، الَّذِينَ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَيَمُوتُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ. فَأَرْجُو أَنْ يُورِثَنِي الْكُرَاعَ فَأَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ. وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: " إِنَّ رَبِّي وَعَدَنِي أَنْ يُدْخِلَ الْجَنَّةَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي سَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا بِغَيْرِ حِسَابٍ، ثُمَّ يَشْفَعُ كُلُّ أَلْفٍ لِسَبْعِينَ أَلْفًا، ثُمَّ يَحْثِي رَبِّي تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى بِكَفَّيْهِ ثَلَاثَ حَثَيَاتٍ ". فَكَبَّرَ عُمَرُ، وَقَالَ: إِنَّ السَّبْعِينَ الْأُولَى لَيُشَفِّعُهُمُ اللهُ فِي آبَائِهِمْ، وَأَبْنَائِهِمْ، وَعَشَائِرِهِمْ، وَأَرْجُو أَنْ يَجْعَلَنِي اللهُ فِي إِحْدَى الْحَثَيَاتِ الْأَوَاخِرِ. فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، وَفِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ تُدْعَى طُوبَى هِيَ تُطَابِقُ الْفِرْدَوْسَ ". فَقَالَ: أَيُّ شَجَرِ أَرْضِنَا تُشْبِهُ ؟ قَالَ: " لَيْسَ تُشْبِهُ مِنْ شَجَرِ أَرْضِكَ، وَلَكِنْ أَتَيْتَ الشَّامَ ؟ " قَالَ: لَا، يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ. قَالَ: " فَإِنَّهَا تُشْبِهُ شَجَرَةً فِي الشَّامِ تُدْعَى الْجَوْزَةَ، تَنْبُتُ عَلَى سَاقٍ وَاحِدٍ، ثُمَّ يَنْتَشِرُ أَعْلَاهَا ". قَالَ: فَمَا عِظَمُ أَصْلِهَا ؟ قَالَ: " لَوِ ارْتَحَلَتْ جَذَعَةٌ مِنْ إِبِلِ أَهْلِكَ لَمَا قَطَعَتْهَا حَتَّى تَنْكَسِرَ تَرْقُوَتُهَا هَرَمًا ". قَالَ: فِيهَا عِنَبٌ ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ ". قَالَ: مَا عِظَمُ الْعُنْقُودِ مِنْهَا ؟ قَالَ: " مَسِيرَةُ شَهْرٍ لِلْغُرَابِ الْأَبْقَعِ، لَا يَنْثَنِي وَلَا يَفْتُرُ ". قَالَ: فَمَا عِظَمُ الْحَبَّةِ مِنْهُ ؟ قَالَ: " هَلْ ذَبَحَ أَبُوكَ مِنْ غَنَمِهِ شَيْئًا عَظِيمًا ؟ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: " فَسَلَخَ إِهَابَهَا فَأَعْطَاهُ أُمَّكَ، فَقَالَ: ادْبُغِي هَذَا، ثُمَّ افْرِي لَنَا مِنْهُ ذَنُوبًا نَرْوِي بِهِ مَاشِيَتَنَا ؟ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: فَإِنَّ تِلْكَ تُشْبِعُنِي وَأَهْلَ بَيْتِي ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: " وَعَامَّةَ عَشِيرَتِكَ

✧ A bedouin came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, “What is your Cistern that you talk about?” He said, “It is like the distance between al-Bayḍāʾ and Buṣrā. Allah will supply me in it with a cup so large that no human knows from what it was created or where its two ends are.” ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb said takbīr and said, “As for the Cistern, the poor emigrants will come to it—those who fight in the path of Allah and die in the path of Allah. I hope that He will grant me that cup so I may drink from it.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “My Lord promised me to admit into Paradise seventy thousand of my community without reckoning. Then each thousand will intercede for seventy thousand. Then my Lord, Blessed and Exalted, will scoop with His two hands three scoops.” ʿUmar said takbīr and said, “The first seventy thousand, Allah will let them intercede for their fathers, sons, and clans. I hope Allah will place me in one of the last scoops.” The bedouin said, “O Messenger of Allah, does it have fruit?” He said, “Yes, and in it is a tree called Ṭūbā. It corresponds to al-Firdaws.” He said, “Which tree of our land does it resemble?” He said, “It does not resemble any tree of your land. But have you been to Syria?” He said, “No, O Messenger of Allah.” He said, “It resembles a tree in Syria called the walnut. It grows on one trunk, then its top spreads out.” He said, “How large is its base?” He said, “If a young camel of your family’s camels set out to circle it, it would not complete the circuit before its collarbone breaks from old age.” He said, “Does it have grapes?” He said, “Yes.” He said, “How large is a cluster of them?” He said, “A month’s journey for the pied crow, not turning aside and not tiring.” He said, “How large is a single grape from it?” He said, “Did your father ever slaughter a large animal from his sheep?” He said, “Yes.” He said, “He skinned its hide and gave it to your mother, saying, ‘Tan this, then cut from it buckets for us to water our livestock with’?” He said, “Yes.” He said, “Will that satisfy me and my household?” The Prophet ﷺ said, “And the majority of your clan.”
