عَامِرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ الْبِكَالِيُّ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ عَبْدٍ
[Machine] An Arab man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and asked him about Paradise and mentioned the Pond. He asked, "Are there fruits in it?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "Yes, and there is a tree called Tuba in it." He asked, "Which tree in our land does it resemble?" He replied, "It does not resemble any tree in your land. You came to Sham, and there is a tree there called Jauza that grows on a trunk and its branches spread." He asked, "O Messenger of Allah, how big is its root?" He answered, "If a trunk of your camels was taken, it would not reach its root until it was broken and decayed." He asked, "So, does it have grapes?" He said, "Yes." He asked, "How big are its grape clusters?" He said, "It takes as long as the spotted crow would fly for a month, and it does not break." He asked, "And what about the size of its grape?" He replied, "As big as your father and mother's pillar, so they slaughtered it and skinned it." He said, "Make a bucket for us from it." He said, "O Messenger of Allah, will that grape be enough for me and my family?" He answered, "Yes, and your whole tribe."
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْجَنَّةِ وَذَكَرَ الْحَوْضَ فَقَالَ فِيهَا فَاكِهَةٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ وَفِيهَا شَجَرَةٌ تُدْعَى طُوبَى» قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ شَجَرِ أَرْضِنَا تُشْبِهُ؟ قَالَ «لَا تُشْبِهُ شَيْئًا مِنْ شَجَرِ أَرْضِكَ أَتَيْتَ الشَّامَ فَإِنَّ هُنَالِكَ شَجَرَةً تُدْعَى الْجَوْزَةُ تَنْبُتُ عَلَى سَاقٍ ويَفْتَرِعُ أَعْلَاهَا» قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَمَا عِظَمُ أَصْلِهَا؟ قَالَ «لَو ارْتَحَلَتْ جَذَعَةٌ مِنْ إِبِلِ أَهْلِكَ مَا أَحَطْتَ بِأَصْلِها حَتَّى تَنْكَسِرَ تَرْقُوَتُهَا هَرَمًا» قَالَ فَفِيهَا عِنَبٌ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ» قَالَ فَمَا عِظَمُ الْعُنْقُودِ مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ «مَسِيرَةُ الْغُرَابِ الْأَبْقَعِ شَهْرًا وَلَا يَفْتُرُ» قَالَ فَمَا عِظَمُ الْحَبَّةِ مِنْهَا؟ قَالَ «عَمَدَ أَبُوكَ وأُمُّكَ إِلَى جَذَعَةٍ فَذَبَحَهَا وَسَلَخَ جِلْدَهَا» فَقَالَ «اصْنَعُوا لَنَا مِنْهُ دَلْوًا» فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ تِلْكَ الْحَبَّةَ تَسَعُنِي وَأَهْلِي؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ وَعَامَّةَ عَشِيرَتَكَ»
