It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about Kawthar. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It is a river which my Lord has granted me. Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey, and in it there will be birds with necks like those of camels. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Messenger of Allah! Those birds will be very excellent. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Umar! Those who eat them will be even better and superior than them.
