It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out towards Makkah Mukarramah in the month of Ramadan in the year of the conquest of Makkah. In one narration, it is mentioned that ten days of Ramadan had passed, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was fasting. At midday, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by a water pond. Since the people were thirsty, they were stretching their necks and looking, and their souls were desiring water. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a cup of water brought and held it in his hand until all the people saw him in that state. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) drank from it, and the people also drank water.
