Hadith 14211

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ أَيْمَنَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : مَكَثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ وَهُمْ يَحْفِرُونَ الْخَنْدَقَ ثَلَاثًا ، لَمْ يَذُوقُوا طَعَامًا ، فَقَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ هَاهُنَا كُدْيَةً مِنَ الْجَبَلِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " رُشُّوهَا بِالْمَاءِ " فَرَشُّوهَا ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخَذَ الْمِعْوَلَ ، أَوْ الْمِسْحَاةَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " بِاسْمِ اللَّهِ " فَضَرَبَ ثَلَاثًا ، فَصَارَتْ كَثِيبًا يُهَالُ ، قَالَ جَابِرٌ : فَحَانَتْ مِنِّي الْتِفَاتَةٌ ، فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ شَدَّ عَلَى بَطْنِهِ حَجَرًا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of digging the trench, three days passed over the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his companions in such a state that they had not tasted anything. While digging the trench, at one point the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said: "O Messenger of Allah! Here a rock from the mountain has come in the way." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Sprinkle water on it." They sprinkled water on it. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came, took a pickaxe, recited Bismillah, and struck it three times. At that moment, the rock broke and became a mound of sand. Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says that I noticed at that time the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had tied a stone to his blessed stomach.
