أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ حَوْضُهُ مَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ قَالَ الأَوَانِي قَالَ لاَ فَقَالَ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ تُرَى فِيهِ الآنِيَةُ مِثْلَ الْكَوَاكِبِ
Haritha said that he heard the Prophet saying that his Lake-Fount would be as large as the distance between Sana' and Medina. Al- Mustaurid said to Haritha, "Didn't you hear him talking about the vessels?" He said, "No." Al- Mustaurid said, "The vessels are seen in it as (numberless as) the stars."
سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَوْلَهُ حَوْضُهُ مَا بَيْنَ صَنْعَاءَ وَالْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ أَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ قَالَ الأَوَانِي قَالَ لاَ قَالَ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ تُرَى فِيهِ الآنِيَةُ مِثْلَ الْكَوَاكِبِ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ حَوْضِي مَا بَيْنَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَصَنْعَاءَ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ أَوَلَمْ تَسْمَعْهُ؟ قَالَ الْأَوَانِي فَقَالَ الْمُسْتَوْرِدُ فِيهِ الْآنِيَةُ مِثْلُ الْكَوَاكِبِ وَاللَّفْظُ لِحَدِيثِ زَكَرِيَّا السَّاجِيِّ
