(Second chain) Abu Sabrah says: Ubaidullah bin Ziyad used to keep inquiring about the Hawd (Pond) of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). He had already asked about it from Sayyiduna Abu Barzah, Sayyiduna Bara’ bin Azib, Sayyiduna ‘Aiz bin Amr, and another companion, yet he would still deny it. One day, Abu Sabrah said to him: I will narrate to you a hadith in which the solution to your confusion is present. Your father sent me to Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) after giving me some wealth. There I met Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him), who narrated to me the ahadith he had heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) and also dictated them to me. I wrote down those ahadith with my own hand, not omitting or adding even a single letter. He narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: Allah Almighty does not like obscene speech... The rest of the hadith is like the first hadith, except that it adds: Beware! Your meeting with me will be at my Hawd. Its length and width are equal; it is as vast as the distance from Aylah to Makkah Mukarramah, which is a month's journey. There will be drinking vessels there as numerous as the stars in the sky. The water of this Hawd will be whiter than silver. Whoever drinks from it once will never feel thirst again. Upon hearing this hadith, Ubaidullah bin Ziyad said: I have not heard a more authentic and strong hadith about the Hawd of Kawthar than this. Then he affirmed it and kept that scroll (book) with him.
