I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a journey. We travelled the whole of the night, and when it was about to dawn, we got down for rest, and were overpowered (by sleep) till the sun shone. Abu Bakr was the first to awake amongst us. and we did not awake the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from his sleep allowing him to wake up (of his own accord). It was 'Umar who then woke up. He stood by the side of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and recited takbir in a loud voice till the Messenger of Allah ﷺ woke up. When he lifted his head, he saw that the sun had arisen; he then said: Proceed on. He travelled along with us till the sun shone brightly. He came down (from his camel) and led us in the morning prayer. A person, however, remained away from the people and did not say, prayer along with us. After having completed the prayer, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: O, so and so, what prevented you from observing prayer with us? He said: Apostle of Allah! I was not in a state of purity. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered him arid lie performed Tayammum with dust and said prayer. He then urged me to go ahead immediately along with other riders to find out water, for we felt very thirsty. We were traveling when we came across a woman who was sitting (on a camel) with her feet hanging over two leathern water bags. We said to her: How far is water available? She, said: Far, very far, very far. You cannot get water. We (again) said: How much distance is there between (the residence of) your family and water? She said: It is a day and night journey. We said to her: You go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. She said: Who is the Messenger of Allah? We somehow or the other managed to bring her to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he asked about her, and she informed him as she had informed us that she was a widow having orphan children. He ordered that her camel should be made to kneal down and he gargled in the opening (of her leathern water-bag). The camel was then raised up and we forty thirsty men drank water till we were completely satiated, and we filled up all leathern water-bags and water-skins that we had with us and we washed our companions, but we did not make any camel drink, and (the leathern water-bags) were about to burst (on account of excess of water). He then said: Bring whatever you have with you. So we collected the bits (of estable things) and dates and packed them up in a bundle, and said to her: Take it away. This is meant for your children, and know that we have not its any way done any loss to your water. W hen she came to her family she said: I have met the greatest magician amongst human beings, or he is an apostle, as he claims to be, and she then narrated what had happened and Allah guided aright those people through that woman. She affirmed her faith in Islam and so did the people embrace Islam.

[Machine] He (Abu Bakr) was with the Prophet ﷺ when they were lost on their way during the night. When they reached the face of dawn, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ got married and his companions fell asleep until the sun rose. The first person to wake up from his sleep was Abu Bakr, and he did not wake up the Prophet ﷺ until the Prophet ﷺ woke up. Then Umar woke up and did the same as Abu Bakr by his head, he began to make takbeer and raise his voice until the Prophet ﷺ woke up. When he saw that the sun had risen, he said, "Get up, let's go." So he left with us until the sun became white. Then he stopped and prayed with us. One person from the group left and did not pray with us. After finishing the prayer, the Prophet ﷺ asked him, "O so-and-so, what prevented you from praying with us?" He replied, "O Messenger of Allah, I was in the state of janabah (impurity), so he ordered me to perform tayammum with sand and then pray." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ hurried me in a carriage in front of him to fetch water, and we were extremely thirsty. While we were walking, we came across a woman with her legs tied with ropes. We asked her, "Where is there water?" She said, "Nowhere, nowhere, there is no water." We asked her, "How far are you from water?" She said, "A day and a night away." We told her, "Go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." She asked, "And who is the Messenger of Allah?" We couldn't do anything to help her until we met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with her. We opened our containers and drank from them, quenching our thirst. We filled every container we had with water for her and brought her fruit and dates. Then he said to us, "Come, what do you have?" So we gathered pieces and dates for her until we made a bunch for her. He said, "Go and feed your family with this, and know that we did not take anything from your water." When she went to her family, she said, "We have met the most amazing people, or he is truly a prophet as they claim." Allah guided her and her family through that woman, and they all embraced Islam.

That they were with the Prophet ﷺ on a journey. They travelled the whole night, and when dawn approached, they took a rest and sleep overwhelmed them till the sun rose high in the sky. The first to get up was Abu Bakr. Messenger of Allah ﷺs used not to be awakened from his sleep, but he would wake up by himself. ʿUmar woke up and then Abu Bakr sat by the side of the Prophet's head and started saying: Allahu-Akbar raising his voice till the Prophet ﷺ woke up, (and after traveling for a while) he dismounted and led us in the morning prayer. A man amongst the people failed to join us in the prayer. When the Prophet ﷺ had finished the prayer, he asked (the man), "O so-and-so! What prevented you from offering the prayer with us?" He replied, "I am Junub," Alllah's Apostle ordered him to perform Tayammam with clean earth. The man then offered the prayer. Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered me and a few others to go ahead of him. We had become very thirsty. While we were on our way (looking for water), we came across a lady (riding an animal), hanging her legs between two water-skins. We asked her, "Where can we get water?" She replied, "Oh ! There is no water." We asked, "how far is your house from the water?" She replied, "A distance of a day and a night travel." We said, "Come on to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, "She asked, "What is Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" So we brought her to Messenger of Allah ﷺ against her will, and she told him what she had told us before and added that she was the mother of orphans. So the Prophet ﷺ ordered that her two water-skins be brought and he rubbed the mouths of the water-skins. As we were thirsty, we drank till we quenched our thirst and we were forty men. We also filled all our waterskins and other utensils with water, but we did not water the camels. The waterskin was so full that it was almost about to burst. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Bring what (foodstuff) you have." So some dates and pieces of bread were collected for the lady, and when she went to her people, she said, "I have met either the greatest magician or a prophet as the people claim." So Allah guided the people of that village through that lady. She embraced Islam and they all embraced Islam. (Using translation from Bukhārī 3571)
