Musnad of Anas bin Malik
Musnad Abi Ya'la 2761 — the Hawd (the Pond of al-Kawthar) was
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَلَامٍ أَبُو حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، أَنَّهُ ذُكِرَ عِنْدَ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْحَوْضُ ، فَكَأَنَّهُ أَنْكَرَهُ ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ أَنَسًا ، فَقَالَ : لَا جَرَمَ لَأَسُوءَنَّهُ ، فَأَتَاهُ ، فَقَالَ : مَا أَنْكَرْتُمْ مِنَ الْحَوْضِ ؟ قَالَ : وَهَلْ سَمِعْتَهُ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، أَكْثَرَ مِنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا مَرَّةً ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، يَقُولُ : مَا بَيْنَ طَرَفَيْ حَوْضِي كَمَا بَيْنَ أَيْلَةَ وَمَكَّةَ ، أَوْ بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَمَكَّةَ ، وَإِنَّ آنِيَتَهُ لَأَكْثَرُ مِنْ عَدَدِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Hawd (the Pond of al-Kawthar) was mentioned in the presence of Ubaydullah bin Ziyad, and he seemed to deny it. When this reached Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he said: "I will certainly tell him something that will displease him." So he went to him and said: "What is it about the Hawd that you deny?" He said: "O Abu Hamzah, did you hear this yourself from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He said: "Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say it many times, indeed more than so many times: 'The distance between the two sides of my Hawd is like the distance between Aylah and Makkah, or between San'a' and Makkah, and its vessels are more in number than the stars of the sky.'"
