قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، قَالَ : قَالَ سَعْدٌ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، مُرْنِي بِصَدَقَةٍ ، فَقَالَ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : اسْقِ ، يَعْنِي الْمَاءَ . قَالَ الْحَسَنُ : فَنَصَبَ سِقَايَتَيْنِ كُنْتُ أَسْعَى بَيْنَهُمَا وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) that he submitted in the court of the Messenger: O Messenger of Allah, command me to give some charity. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give water to drink (that is, arrange for the provision of water)."
Imam al-Hasan al-Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) states that (in compliance with this Prophetic command) Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him) had two large water troughs or drinking fountains set up, and in my childhood I used to run between the two of them.
