Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: I remember this about myself that I was with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when the time for Asr prayer came. We did not have water, except for a little leftover water. It was poured into a vessel, then that vessel was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) put his blessed hand into it. He spread his fingers and said: "Come to the water for ablution. Blessing is from Allah, the Exalted." The narrator says: So I saw water gushing forth from between the fingers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The narrator says: So the people performed ablution and they also drank the water. The narrator states: I tried my utmost to drink as much of that water as I could, because I knew that it was blessed. The narrator says: I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): How many people were you that day? He replied: One thousand four hundred (people).

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I saw the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) when the time for the Asr prayer had come and people were searching for water for ablution but could not find any. Then some water for ablution was brought. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand in that vessel and instructed the people to begin performing ablution from it. I saw water gushing forth from beneath the fingers of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The people performed ablution until all of them had completed their ablution.

Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Once we were traveling with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The people did not find water, and a bowl of water was brought. The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) put his blessed hand into it, and I saw water gushing forth from between the fingers of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Come towards the means of attaining purity, blessing is from Allah Almighty." The narrator named A’mash has narrated this, Salim told me this. I asked Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both): How many people were you? He replied: One thousand five hundred (people).

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: On the day of Hudaybiyyah, the people became thirsty. The people submitted to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand in the water, and the water became like springs. The narrator says: I asked: How many people were you? He replied: If we had been three thousand, it would have sufficed for us; as it was, our number was fifteen hundred.

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: During the expedition of Hudaybiyyah, the people were afflicted with thirst. There was a bowl placed before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) from which he was performing ablution. When the people made a request to him, he said: What is your situation? The people replied: We do not have (water) for ablution nor for drinking. Only the water that is before you is available. The narrator says: Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed both his hands over the bowl and then supplicated as Allah willed. The narrator says: Then water began to gush forth from between the fingers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) like springs. The narrator says: So we drank from it and performed ablution with it.

The narrator states: I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): How many people were you? He replied: We were fifteen hundred people, but even if we had been one hundred thousand, it would have sufficed for us.

Thabit narrates: I said to Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): Tell us about something astonishing which we cannot narrate from anyone else except you. So Sayyiduna Anas said: One day, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the Zuhr prayer in Madinah Munawwarah, then he came to the place where Sayyiduna Jibreel used to come to him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sat there. Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) came and gave the adhan for Asr. So whoever had a house in Madinah Munawwarah went home and relieved himself. Some people from among the Muhajireen remained, whose families were not in Madinah. A bowl containing water was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) put his fingers into that bowl, but all his fingers could not fit into the bowl. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed these four fingers into the bowl, and then said: Come forward and all of you perform wudu.

The narrator says: I asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): In your opinion, how many people were there? He replied: Between seventy and eighty.

(Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) All these narrations can be reconciled in such a way that this miracle occurred from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) several times. It happened four times on different occasions. Once, the number of people was between fourteen hundred and fifteen hundred, and at that time the water was in a stone bowl. The second time, the number of people was between fourteen hundred and fifteen hundred, and at that time the water was in a tray. The third time, the number of people was between sixty and eighty, and at that time the water was in a deep bowl. The fourth time, the number of people was three hundred, and at that time the water was in a large bowl. In this way, there will remain no contradiction or difference between these narrations.

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Some companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) searched for water for ablution (but did not find it). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Does any of you have water? Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand in that water and then said: Begin your ablution with the name of Allah. (The narrator says:) I saw water flowing from between the fingers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The people performed ablution, until every person present there had performed ablution. Thabit asked Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him): How many people were there? Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: About seventy people.

Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The time for prayer had come. Whoever's house was nearby performed ablution (wudu) at his home. Some people remained. A stone vessel containing water was brought to the service of the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . There was not even enough water in that vessel to fill a palm. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم joined his fingers together and placed them in the bowl, and all the people present performed ablution from it.

(The narrator says:) We asked: How many were they? He replied: They were 80 individuals.

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) asked for water, so water was brought in a deep bowl. People began to perform ablution, and I counted them; their number was between 60 and 80.
The narrator says: I saw that water was gushing forth from between the fingers of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I was present with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when he was with his companions in Madinah Munawwarah (the narrator is in doubt, perhaps these are the words) in Zawraa. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to perform ablution, a bowl was presented to him in which there was a little water. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his hand on that bowl, and water began to gush forth from between the fingers of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), until all the people performed ablution.

The narrator asked: How many people were you? Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) replied: About 300.
