SahihMuslim-017-001-24552 | | Imran Bin Hosain reported: I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a journey. We travelled the whole of the night; and when it was about to dawn; we got down for rest; and were overpowered by sleep till the sun shone. Abu Bakr was the first to awake amongst us. and we did not awake the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from his sleep allowing him to wake up of his own accord. It was Umar who then woke up. He stood by the side of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and recited takbir in a loud voice till the Messenger of Allah ﷺ woke up. When he lifted his head; he saw that the sun had arisen; he then said: Proceed on. He travelled along with us till the sun shone brightly. He came down from his camel and led us in the morning prayer. A person; however; remained away from the people and did not say; prayer along with us. After having completed the prayer; the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: O; so and so; what prevented you from observing prayer with us? He said: Apostle of Allah! I was not in a state of purity. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him arid lie performed Tayammum with dust and said prayer. He then urged me to go ahead immediately along with other riders to find out water; for we felt very thirsty. We were traveling when we came across a woman who was sitting on a camel with her feet hanging over two leathern water bags. We said to her: How far is water available? She; said: Far; very far; very far. You cannot get water. We again said: How much distance is there between the residence of your family and water? She said: It is a day and night journey. We said to her: You go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: Who is the Messenger of Allah? We somehow or the other managed to bring her to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he asked about her; and she informed him as she had informed us that she was a widow having orphan children. He ordered that her camel should be made to kneal down and he gargled in the opening of her leathern water-bag. The camel was then raised up and we forty thirsty men drank water till we were completely satiated; and we filled up all leathern water-bags and water-skins that we had with us and we washed our companions; but we did not make any camel drink; and the leathern water-bags were about to burst on account of excess of water. He then said: Bring whatever you have with you. So we collected the bits of estable things and dates and packed them up in a bundle; and said to her: Take it away. This is meant for your children; and know that we have not its any way done any loss to your water. W hen she came to her family she said: I have met the greatest magician amongst human beings; or he is an apostle; as he claims to be; and she then narrated what had happened and Allah guided aright those people through that woman. She affirmed her faith in Islam and so did the people embrace Islam. | The Chapter on Journeys And Travel And Camels in HodHood Indexing, Chapter on 55 in Sahih Muslim |
