ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ عَنْ وَصْفِ الطُّوَلِ الَّذِي يَكُونُ بَيْنَ حَافَتَيْ حَوْضِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ فِي الْقِيَامَةِ أَوْرَدَنَا اللَّهُ إِيَّاهُ بِفَضْلِهِ

“The distance between the two ends of my Cistern is like the distance between San’a and Al-Madinah,’ or ‘between Al-Madinah and ‘Amman.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 4304)   

ابن حبّان:٦٤٤٨أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُرَيْمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى وَعَاصِمُ بْنُ النَّضْرِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا بَيْنَ نَاحِيَتَيْ حَوْضِي كَمَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ»

There would be such a vast distance between the sides of my Cistern as it is between Sana' and Medina.
