It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were on a journey with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and water was not available. A vessel of water was presented to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) put his blessed hand in it and spread his fingers open. I saw that springs of water began to flow from the fingers of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) kept saying: "Come for ablution, this is a blessing from Allah." A'mash says that Salim bin Abi Al-Ja'd told me that I asked Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) how many people were there that day? He replied: Our number was one and a half thousand people.
