حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ، وَحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ قَوْمًا ذَكَرُوا عِنْدَ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْحَوْضَ - قَالَ حَسَنٌ: عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ أَنَّهُ ذُكِرَ عِنْدَ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ الْحَوْضُ (٢) - فَأَنْكَرَهُ، وَقَالَ: مَا الْحَوْضُ؟، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، فَقَالَ: لَا جَرَمَ وَاللهِ لَأَفْعَلَنَّ. فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: ذَكَرْتُمُ الْحَوْضَ؟ فَقَالَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ: هَلْ سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُهُ؟ فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، أَكْثَرَ مِنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا مَرَّةً " يَقُولُ: " إِنَّ مَا بَيْنَ طَرَفَيْهِ كَمَا بَيْنَ أَيْلَةَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ، - أَوْ ما بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَمَكَّةَ -، وَإِنَّ آنِيَتَهُ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ " قَالَ حَسَنٌ: " وَإِنَّ آنِيَتَهُ لَأَكْثَرُ مِنْ عَدَدِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ " (٣)، ،

English translation

Khawaja Hasan Basri (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once, in the presence of Ubaidullah bin Ziyad, some people mentioned the Hawd (Pond) of Kawthar. He denied it, saying, "What kind of pond?" When Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) found out, he said, "By Allah! I will make him accept it." So he went to Ibn Ziyad and said to him, "Were you people mentioning the Hawd of Kawthar?" Ibn Ziyad asked, "Did you hear the Prophet (ﷺ) mention it?" He replied, "Yes! The Prophet (ﷺ) mentioned it countless times, saying that the distance between its two banks is as much as between Aylah and Makkah (or between Sana'a and Makkah), and its vessels will be more numerous than the stars in the sky."
