The Cistern

00:00:09.830 --> 00:00:17.890
It is the cistern of the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, whose mention is attested by numerous hadiths.

00:00:17.890 --> 00:00:21.890
It is a vast cistern, and its description is as follows, according to the hadith:

00:00:21.890 --> 00:00:26.890
"Its capacity is as between Aylah and Sana'a in Yemen."

00:00:26.890 --> 00:00:31.890
"And in it are pitchers like the number of stars in the sky."

00:00:31.890 --> 00:00:33.890
Agreed upon.

00:00:33.890 --> 00:00:35.890
And in another hadith narrated by Muslim:

00:00:35.890 --> 00:00:39.890
"Two streams from Paradise will pour into it."

00:00:39.890 --> 00:00:42.890
"Whoever drinks from it will never thirst."

00:00:42.890 --> 00:00:44.890
Its width is equal to its length.

00:00:44.890 --> 00:00:47.890
"From Amman to Aylah."

00:00:47.890 --> 00:00:52.890
"Its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey."

00:00:52.890 --> 00:00:55.049
Narrated by Muslim.

00:00:55.049 --> 00:01:01.049
The believers who follow the Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, will come to the cistern.

00:01:01.049 --> 00:01:05.049
As for those who innovate after him, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him,

00:01:05.049 --> 00:01:07.049
they will be prevented from it.

00:01:07.049 --> 00:01:10.049
As the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:

00:01:10.049 --> 00:01:14.049
"People from the cistern will come to me,"

00:01:14.049 --> 00:01:18.049
"and when I recognize them, they will be pulled away from me."

00:01:18.049 --> 00:01:21.049
"I will say, 'My Companions!'"

00:01:21.049 --> 00:01:26.140
"It will be said, 'You do not know what innovations they introduced after you.'"

00:01:26.140 --> 00:01:29.299
