Sahih Muslim 2290

Chapter: The Cistern Of Our Prophet (SAW) And Its Attributes

Authentic hadith of Sahih Muslim Sahih Muslim 2290

Narrator:Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْقَارِيَّ - عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَهْلاً، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏

أَنَا فَرَطُكُمْ، عَلَى الْحَوْضِ مَنْ وَرَدَ شَرِبَ وَمَنْ شَرِبَ لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَدًا وَلَيَرِدَنَّ عَلَىَّ أَقْوَامٌ أَعْرِفُهُمْ وَيَعْرِفُونِي ثُمَّ يُحَالُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ ‏"

Sahl (b. Sa'd) reported:

I heard Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) as saying: I shall go to the Cistern before you and he who comes would drink and he who drinks would never feel thirsty, and there would come to me people whom I would know and who would know me. Then there would be intervention between me and them. Abu Hazim said that Nu'man b. Abu 'Ayyash heard it and I narrated to them this hadith, and said: Is it this that you heard Sahl saying? He said: Yes, and I bear witness to the fact that I heard it from Abu Sa'id Khudri also, but he made this addition that he (the Holy Prophet) would say: They are my followers, and it would be said to him: You do not know what they did after you and I will say to them: Woe to him who changes (his religion) after me.

An-Nawawi — Sharh Sahih Muslim

قَوْله صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ( وَمَنْ شَرِبَ لَمْ يَظْمَأْ أَبَدًا ) أَيْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ. وَالظَّمَأُ مَهْمُوزٌ مَقْصُورٌ كَمَا وَرَدَ بِهِ الْقُرْآن الْعَزِيز , وَهُوَ الْعَطَشُ , يُقَالُ : ظَمِئَ ظَمَأ يَظْمَأُ , فَهُوَ ظَمْآن , وَهُمْ ظِمَاء بِالْمَدِّ كَعَطِشَ يَعْطَشُ عَطَشًا فَهُوَ عَطْشَان وَهُمْ عِطَاش. قَالَ الْقَاضِي : ظَاهِر هَذَا الْحَدِيث أَنَّ الشُّرْب مِنْهُ يَكُون بَعْد الْحِسَاب وَالنَّجَاة مِنْ النَّار , فَهَذَا هُوَ الَّذِي لَا يُظْمَأُ بَعْده. قَالَ : وَقِيلَ : لَا يَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ إِلَّا مَنْ قُدِّرَ لَهُ السَّلَامَة مِنْ النَّار. قَالَ : وَيَحْتَمِلُ أَنَّ مَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ مِنْ هَذِهِ الْأُمَّة وَقُدِّرَ عَلَيْهِ دُخُول النَّار لَا يُعَذَّبُ فِيهَا بِالظَّم…
