أحمد:١٩٤١٢حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَحَجَّاجٌ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْمُخْتَارِ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ أَبِي أَوْفَى قَالَ

أَصَابَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابَهُ عَطَشٌ قَالَ فَنَزَلَ مَنْزِلًا فَأُتِيَ بِإِنَاءٍ فَجَعَلَ يَسْقِي أَصْحَابَهُ وَجَعَلُوا يَقُولُونَ اشْرَبْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَاقِي الْقَوْمِ آخِرُهُمْ حَتَّى سَقَاهُمْ كُلَّهُمْ
