[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ used to go out and pour water, then he would wipe himself with dust. I would say, "O Messenger of Allah, the water is near you." He would reply, "How do you know? Maybe I will not reach it."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَخْرُجُ فَيُهَرِيقُ الْمَاءَ فَيَتَمَسَّحُ بِالتُّرَابِ فَأَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ مِنْكَ قَرِيبٌ فَيَقُولُ وَمَا يُدْرِينِي لَعَلِّي لَا أَبْلُغُهُ
[Machine] The translation of the given sentence into English is:
"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to go out and pour water, then he would perform ablution with soil. So I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, the water is close to you.' He said, 'I do not know if I will be able to reach it.' He said, 'Yahya once again I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he went out and poured water, then he performed dry ablution. So it was said to him, 'The water is near us.'"
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَخْرُجُ فَيُهَرِيقُ الْمَاءَ فَيَتَمَسَّحُ بِالتُّرَابِ فَأَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ مِنْكَ قَرِيبٌ قَالَ مَا أَدْرِي لَعَلِّي لَا أَبْلُغُهُ قَالَ قَالَ يَحْيَى مَرَّةً أُخْرَى كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَخَرَجَ فَأُهْرَاقَ الْمَاءَ فَتَيَمَّمَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ مِنَّا قَرِيبٌ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to go out and fetch water, then he would wipe himself with soil. So I would say, "O Messenger of Allah, the water is near you." And he would say, "Perhaps I may not reach it."
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَخْرُجُ فَيُهَرِيقُ الْمَاءَ فَيَتَمَسَّحُ بِالتُّرَابِ فَأَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ مِنْكَ قَرِيبٌ فَيَقُولُ «لَعَلِّي لَا أَبْلُغُهُ»
