A hadith like this has been transmitted on the authority, of 'Ubaidullah with this addition: Ubaidullah was asked (about these two names, i. e. Jarba' and Adhruh). He said: These are the two towns of Syria and there is between them the distance which can be covered in three nights, and the hadith transmitted on the authority of Ibn Bishr (the words are). "Three days."

A hadith like this has been narrated on the authority of Ibn 'Umar (RA) through another chain of transmitters.

'Abdullah reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: There would be before you a Cistern (as extensive) as there is the distance between Jarba' and Adhruh and there would be jugs like stars in the sky; he who would come to that and drink from it would never feel thirsty after that.

Abu Dharr (RA) said: Allah's Messenger, what about the vessels of that Cistern? He said: By Him in Whose Hand is the life of Muhammad, the vessels would outnumber the stars in the sky and its planets shining on a dark cloudless night. These would be the vessels of Paradise. He who drinks out of it (the Cistern) would never feel thirsty. There would flow in it two spouts from Paradise and he who would drink out of it would not feel thirsty; and the distance between its (two corners) is that between 'Amman and Aila, and its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey.

Thauban reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: I would be pushing back from my Cistern the crowd of people. I would strike away from it (the Cistern) with my staff the people of Yemen until the water (of the Haud) would spout forth upon them. He was asked about its breadth. He said: From this place of mine to 'Amman, and he was asked about the drink and he said: It is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. There would spout into it two streamlets having their sources in Paradise. The one is from gold and the other is from silver. This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Hisham with the same chain of transmitters and the words are: "I would be on the Day of Resurrection near the bank of the Cistern."

Thauban reported this hadith pertaining to the Cistern. Muhammad bin Bashshar said: I said to Yahya bin Hammad.

This is the hadith that I heard from Abu 'Awana and he said: I also heard it from Shu'bah. I said: Narrate that to me and he narrated that to me.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: I will drive away from my Cistern people just as the stray camels are driven away.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (RA) through another chain of transmitters.

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: My Cistern would be as extensive as the distance between Aila and San'a, of Yemen, and there would be in it jugs like stars in the sky.
