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.
