أَخْبَرَنَا
أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا
عَزْرَةُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ
ثُمَامَةَ، قَالَ: كَانَ
أَنَسٌ يَتَنَفَّسُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا، وَزَعَمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ
"يَتَنَفَّسُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا".
It is narrated from Thumamah bin Abdullah that Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik, may Allah be pleased with him, used to drink water in two or three breaths and used to say that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, would breathe two or three times over the vessel of water (i.e., he would drink water in two or three breaths).
