According to Jabir b, Abd Allah :
“The people became very thirsty on the day of alHudaibiya (Treaty). A small pot containing some water was in
front of the Prophet , and when he had finished the ablution,
the people rushed towards him. He asked, ‘What is the matter
with you?’ They replied, ‘We have no water either for
performing ablution or for drinking except what is present in
front of you.’ So, he placed his hand in that pot and the water
started flowing among his fingers like springs. We all drank and
performed ablution (from it).” I (the listener) asked Jabir , ‘How
many of you were present?’ He replied, ‘Even if we had been one
hundred thousand, it would have been sufficient for us, but we
were just fifteen hundred.’”
