Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) when the time for prayer came, the people searched for water, but when they could not find any water, a vessel containing water for ablution was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) put his hand into it and instructed the people to perform ablution from that (vessel). Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I saw water gushing forth from beneath the fingers of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) like a spring, until even the last person of the (caravan) had performed ablution.

Hazrat Abu Humaid Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that we were going for the expedition of Tabuk with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). When he passed through Wadi al-Qura (an ancient settlement between Madinah Munawwarah and Syria), our eyes fell upon a woman who was standing in her orchard. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to the companions (may Allah be pleased with them all),“Estimate the yield of her fruits (how many dates will come out of it).”The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) estimated it to be ten wasqs. Then he said to the woman,“Remember, however many dates come out of it.”When we reached Tabuk, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Tonight there will be a very strong wind, so no one should remain standing, and those who have camels should tie them.”So we tied the camels, and a very strong wind came. There was a man who was standing, and the wind threw him onto Mount Tay. The ruler of Aylah (Yuhanna bin Rubah) sent the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) a gift of a white mule and a cloak. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) confirmed his rule in writing. Then, when he reached Wadi al-Qura (on the return), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the same woman,“How much fruit did your orchard yield?”She said,“According to your estimate, ten wasqs came out.”After that, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“I wish to return to Madinah quickly, so whoever wants to travel quickly with me should depart with me.”Then, when Madinah became visible, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“This is Taba!”Then he saw Mount Uhud and said,“This mountain loves us and we love it.”Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said,“Shall I not point out the best family among the Ansar?”The companions said,“Please do.”He said,“The family of Banu Najjar, then the family of Banu ‘Abd al-Ashhal, then the family of Banu Sa’idah, or (he said) the family of Banu Harith bin Khazraj.”And he said,“There is goodness in all the families of the Ansar.”

Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): We went out with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) towards Najd for a battle. When it was midday, he reached a forest where there were many acacia trees. He stayed under a dense tree for shade and hung his sword on the tree. The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) also spread out under the trees to get shade. While we were in this state, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called us. We came to him and saw that a Bedouin was sitting in front of him. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: This man came to me while I was sleeping. He drew my sword and I woke up. He was standing over my head with my unsheathed sword and said to me, "Who will save you from me today?" I said, "Allah!" (That man was so overawed by just this one word that) he put the sword back in its sheath and sat down. And look, here he is sitting. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not punish him.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The example of the knowledge and guidance with which Allah has sent me is like that of a heavy rain which falls upon the earth. Some land is pure and absorbs the water, and produces much grass and vegetation. And some land is hard and holds the water, by which Allah benefits the people; they drink from it and give others to drink. And some water falls on parts of the land which are barren plains; they neither retain the water nor produce any vegetation. This is the example of the one who gains understanding in the religion and benefits from what I have been sent with; he learns and teaches the knowledge of religion. And the example of the one who does not raise his head (i.e., does not pay attention) and does not accept the guidance with which I have been sent (i.e., no one benefits from him). In one narration, the words are: "And among them is a group that retains the water."

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: My example and the example of people is like that of a person who lit a fire. When it illuminated the surroundings, moths and insects that fall into the fire began to fall into it, and the one who lit the fire started pulling them out of it, but they did not come under his control and kept falling into the fire. In the same way, I am holding your backs and pulling you out of the fire, but you keep falling into it.

Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The example of me and the prophets before me is like that of a person who built a house and adorned it beautifully, but left a space for one brick in a corner. Now people come and walk around the house, admiring it and expressing wonder, but they also say, "Why was this brick not placed here?" So I am that brick, and I am the Seal of the Prophets.

Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The example of me and the other prophets is like that of a person who built a house, beautified and completed it, except for the place of one brick which was left empty. People would enter that house and be amazed, and would say, "If only this one brick had not been left empty, how perfect and complete this house would be!" (My prophethood has filled that gap and completed the palace of prophethood. Now, no prophet will come after me.)

Hazrat Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I heard the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) say: I will be present at the Hawd (the Pond) before you.

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said,“I will be present at my Hawd (Pond) of Kawthar before you. Whoever passes by me will drink its water, and whoever drinks its water will never feel thirsty again. And there will also come some people there whom I will recognize and they will recognize me, but then they will be turned away from me.”

In the narration of Hazrat Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), there is this addition that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) says: I will say, "These are from among me." It will be said to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "You do not know what new things they invented in the religion after you." Upon this, I will say, "Away with the person who made changes in the religion after me."
