Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 14385 — A bedouin came to the Messenger of Allah

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وُهَيْبٍ الْغَزِّيُّ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ الْعَسْقَلَانِيُّ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، ثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ زَيْدٍ الْبِكَالِيِّ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ قَالَ: جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْجَنَّةِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَوْضَ فَقَالَ: فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ وَفِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ تُدْعَى طُوبَى» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ شَجَرِ أَرْضِنَا تُشْبِهُ؟ قَالَ: «لَا تُشْبِهُ شَيْئًا مِنْ شَجَرِ أَرْضِكَ، أَتَيْتَ الشَّامَ فَإِنَّ هُنَالِكَ شَجَرَةً تُدْعَى الْجَوْزَةُ تَنْبُتُ عَلَى سَاقٍ ويَفْتَرِعُ أَعْلَاهَا» قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَمَا عِظَمُ أَصْلِهَا؟ قَالَ: «لَو ارْتَحَلَتْ جَذَعَةٌ مِنْ إِبِلِ أَهْلِكَ مَا أَحَطْتَ بِأَصْلِها حَتَّى تَنْكَسِرَ تَرْقُوَتُهَا هَرَمًا» قَالَ: فَفِيهَا عِنَبٌ؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ» قَالَ: فَمَا عِظَمُ الْعُنْقُودِ مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ: «مَسِيرَةُ الْغُرَابِ الْأَبْقَعِ شَهْرًا وَلَا يَفْتُرُ» قَالَ: فَمَا عِظَمُ الْحَبَّةِ مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ: «عَمَدَ أَبُوكَ وأُمُّكَ إِلَى جَذَعَةٍ فَذَبَحَهَا وَسَلَخَ جِلْدَهَا» فَقَالَ: «اصْنَعُوا لَنَا مِنْهُ دَلْوًا» فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ تِلْكَ الْحَبَّةَ تَسَعُنِي وَأَهْلِي؟ قَالَ: «نَعَمْ وَعَامَّةَ عَشِيرَتَكَ»
Sayyiduna Utbah bin Abd al-Sulami (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A bedouin came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked him (peace and blessings be upon him) about Paradise, and mentioned the Pool. He said: Is there fruit in it? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, and in it there is a tree called Tuba." He said: O Messenger of Allah, which tree of our land does it resemble? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It does not resemble any tree of your land. Have you been to al-Sham? There is a tree there called al-Jawzah; it grows on a trunk and its top spreads out." He said: O Messenger of Allah, how thick is its trunk? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If a young she-camel from your family's camels set out, she would not encompass its trunk before her collarbone broke from old age." He said: Then are there grapes in it? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes." He said: How big is its bunch? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "A month's journey for a black-and-white crow, without tiring." He said: Then how big is its grape? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Your father and mother went for a young she-camel, slaughtered it and skinned it," then he said: "Make a bucket for us from it." He said: O Messenger of Allah, will that one grape suffice me and my household? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, and most of your kinsfolk as well."
