وَعَنْ أَبِي طَالُوتَ الْعَنَزِيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا بَرْزَةَ الْأَسْلَمِيَّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَخَرَجَ مِنْ عِنْدِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَهُوَ مُغْضَبٌ فَقَالَ مَا كُنْتُ أَظُنُّ أَنِّي أَعِيشُ حَتَّى أَخْلُفَ فِي قَوْمٍ يُعَيِّرُونِي بِصُحْبَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالُوا إِنَّ مُحَمَّدِيَّكُمْ هَذَا لَدَحْدَاحٌ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ فِي الْحَوْضِ فَمَنْ كَذَّبَ فَلَا سَقَاهُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى مِنْهُ
Abu Talut Anazi narrates: He says, I saw Sayyiduna Abu Barzah Aslami (may Allah be pleased with him) in a state of anger, while he was coming out from the presence of Ubaydullah bin Ziyad and saying: I never thought that I would have to see such days in my life that people would reproach me for the companionship of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). They say about me: This is your short and fat Muhammadan. Whereas I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioning the Hawd (the Pond), now whoever denies this Hawd, Allah Almighty will not let him drink from it.
