" إِنَّكُمْ سَتَأْتُونَ غَدًا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ عَيْنَ تَبُوكَ , وَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَأْتُوا بِهَا حَتَّى يَضْحَى النَّهَارُ , فَمَنْ جَاءَ فَلَا يَمَسَّ مِنْ مَائِهَا شَيْئًا حَتَّى آتِيَ " , فَجِئْنَا وَقَدْ سَبَقَنَا إِلَيْهَا رَجُلَانِ , وَالْعَيْنُ مِثْلُ الشِّرَاكِ تَبِضُّ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ , فَسَأَلَهُمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " هَلْ مَسِسْتُمَا مِنْ مَائِهَا شَيْئًا ؟ " , فَقَالَا : نَعَمْ , فَسَبَّهُمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ , وَقَالَ لَهُمَا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ , ثُمَّ غَرَفُوا بِأَيْدِيهِمْ مِنَ الْعَيْنِ قَلِيلًا قَلِيلًا , حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ فِي شَيْءٍ , ثُمَّ غَسَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِيهِ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ أَعَادَهُ فِيهَا , فَجَرَتْ الْعَيْنُ بِمَاءٍ كَثِيرٍ , فَاسْتَقَى النَّاسُ , ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يُوشِكُ يَا مُعَاذُ إِنْ طَالَتْ بِكَ حَيَاةٌ أَنْ تَرَى مَاءً هَاهُنَا قَدْ ملئَ جِنَانًا " . .
It is narrated from Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Tabuk, the noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them) set out with the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would combine the Zuhr and Asr prayers, and the Maghrib and Isha prayers, and would return and again combine the Maghrib and Isha prayers in the same way. One day, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "InshaAllah, tomorrow you will reach the spring of Tabuk, and when you reach there, it will be daytime. Whoever reaches this spring should not touch its water until I arrive." So when we reached there, two men had already arrived before us. There was only a little water trickling from the spring, like a shoelace. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked both of them, "Did you touch this water?" They replied, "Yes!" The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) rebuked them severely and said whatever Allah willed. Then the people scooped out a little water with their hands until enough was collected in a vessel. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) washed his face and blessed hands with it, then poured that water back into the spring. Immediately, the spring filled with water, and everyone drank from it to their fill. Then the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me, "O Mu'adh! It may be that you will have a long life and will see this place filled with gardens."
