Chapter 43: The Book of Virtues - كتاب الفضائل
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ مَعْبَدِ، بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ حَارِثَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " حَوْضُهُ مَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ " . فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ قَالَ " الأَوَانِي " . قَالَ لاَ . فَقَالَ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ " تُرَى فِيهِ الآنِيَةُ مِثْلَ الْكَوَاكِبِ " .
Haritha reported that he heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:
His Cistern would be as extensive as the distance between San'a' and Medina. Mustaurid (one of the narrators) said: Did you not hear anything about the utensils? Thereupon he said. No. Mustaurid said: You would find that the utensils would be like stars.
