Sahih Muslim Hadith 6192 – The Virtues Of

English

[61921 17 – (2392) Abü Hurairah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah say: 'While I was sleeping, I saw myself at a well by which there was a bucket. I drew as much (water) as Allah willed from it, then the son of Abü Quhâfah (i.e., Abü Bakr As- $iddIq) took it and drew a bucket or two with some weakness, may Allah forgive him. Then it changed into a large bucket, and the son of Al-Khattâb took it, and I have never seen any leader among the people draw water as vigorously as 'Umar bin Al-Khattâb; (he drew so much water) that the people drank their fill and then they stayed there for a while."
