حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ بِسْطَامٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، صَاحِبُ الْهَرَوِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ أَبِي كَعْبٍ، صَاحِبِ الْحَرِيرِ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ ضُرَيْبِ بْنِ نُقَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ:

لَمَّا بَعَثَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْعَلَاءَ الْحَضْرَمِيَّ إِلَى الْبَحْرَيْنِ تَبِعْتُهُ، فَرَأَيْتُ مِنْهُ ثَلَاثَ خِصَالٍ لَا أَدْرِي أَيَّتَهُنَّ أَعْجَبُ، انْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى شَاطِئِ الْبَحْرِ، فَقَالَ: سَمُّوا اللهَ، وَاقْتَحِمُوا، فَسَمَّيْنَا، وَاقْتَحَمْنَا، فَعَبَرْنَا، فَمَا بَلَّ الْمَاءُ إِلَّا أَسَافِلَ خِفَافِ إِبِلِنَا، فَلَمَّا قَفَلْنَا، صِرْنَا مَعَهُ بِفَلَاةٍ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ، وَلَيْسَ مَعَنَا مَاءٌ، فَشَكَوْنَا إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: [ فَصَلَّى ] صَلَّوْا رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ دَعَا اللهَ، فَإِذَا سَحَابَةٌ مِثْلُ التُّرْسِ، ثُمَّ أَرْخَتْ عَزَالِيَهَا، فَشَرِبْنَا، وَأَسْقَيْنَا، وَمَاتَ، فَدَفَنَّاهُ فِي الرَّمْلِ، فَلَمَّا سِرْنَا غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ قُلْنَا: يَجِيءُ السَّبُعُ فَيَأْكُلُهُ، فَرَجَعْنَا، فَلَمْ نَرَهُ

✧ When the Prophet ﷺ sent al-‘Ala’ al-Hadrami to al-Bahrayn, I followed him, and I saw from him three qualities, and I do not know which of them is more astonishing. We reached the shore of the sea, and he said, 'Invoke the name of God and plunge in.' So we invoked the name, and we plunged in, and we crossed, and the water only moistened the lower parts of our camels’ hooves. When we returned, we found ourselves with him in a desolate stretch of land, and we had no water with us. We complained to him, and he said, 'Pray two rak‘ahs,' then he supplicated to God, and behold, a cloud like a shield appeared, then it let down its spouts, and we drank and gave water to others. Then he died, and we buried him in the sand. After we had traveled not far, we said, 'A wild beast will come and eat him,' so we returned, and we did not see him.
