bukhari:4966 – Yaʿqūb b. Ibrāhīm > Hushaym > Abū Bishr > Saʿīd b. Jubayr > Ibn ʿAbbās

Saʿid bin Jubair said that Ibn ʿAbbas said about Al-Kauthar. "That is the good which Allah has bestowed upon His Apostle." I said to Saʿid bin Jubair. "But the people claim that it is a river in Paradise." Saʿid said, "The river in Paradise is part of the good which Allah has bestowed on His Apostle."

البخاري:٤٩٦٦ – حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي الْكَوْثَرِ هُوَ الْخَيْرُ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ أَبُو بِشْرٍ قُلْتُ لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ النَّاسَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ نَهَرٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ النَّهَرُ الَّذِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ

bukhari:6578 – ʿAmr b. Muḥammad > Hushaym > Abū Bishr And ʿAṭāʾ b. al-Sāʾib > Saʿīd b. Jubayr > Ibn ʿAbbās > al-Kawthar al-Khayr al-Kathīr al--Adhī Aʿṭāh Allāh Iyyāh > Abū Bishr > Lisaʿīd In Unās Yazʿumūn

The word 'Al-Kauthar' means the abundant good which Allah gave to him (the Prophet ﷺ Muhammad). Abu Bishr said: I said to Saʿid, "Some people claim that it (Al-Kauthar) is a river in Paradise." Saʿid replied, "The river which is in Paradise is one item of that good which Allah has bestowed upon him (Muhammad).

البخاري:٦٥٧٨ – حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ وَعَطَاءُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ قَالَ

الْكَوْثَرُ الْخَيْرُ الْكَثِيرُ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ قَالَ أَبُو بِشْرٍ قُلْتُ لِسَعِيدٍ إِنَّ أُنَاسًا يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ نَهَرٌ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَقَالَ سَعِيدٌ النَّهَرُ الَّذِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ
