Hadith 12032

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدٌ , وَيَزِيدُ , أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ الْمَعْنَى ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " نُودِيَ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، فَقَامَ كُلُّ قَرِيبِ الدَّارِ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ ، وَبَقِيَ مَنْ كَانَ أَهْلُهُ نَائِيَ الدَّارِ ، فَأُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمِخْضَبٍ مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ , فَصَغُرَ أَنْ يَبْسُطَ أَكُفَّهُ فِيهِ ، قَالَ : فَضَمَّ أَصَابِعَهُ ، قَالَ : فَتَوَضَّأَ بَقِيَّتُهُمْ ، قَالَ حُمَيْدٌ : وَسُئِلَ أَنَسٌ كَمْ كَانُوا ؟ ، قَالَ : ثَمَانِينَ أَوْ زِيَادَةً " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the call to prayer was given, all those whose houses were near the mosque came, but those who lived far could not come. A stone bowl was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in which even his palm could hardly open. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) joined his fingers together and so much water flowed from them that everyone performed ablution. Someone asked Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), "How many people were you at that time?" He replied, "Eighty or a little more."
