‏ ‏وَقَالَ ‏ ‏أَلَا إِنَّ مَوْعِدَكُمْ حَوْضِي عَرْضُهُ وَطُولُهُ وَاحِدٌ وَهُوَ كَمَا بَيْنَ ‏ ‏أَيْلَةَ ‏ ‏وَمَكَّةَ ‏ ‏وَهُوَ مَسِيرَةُ ‏ ‏شَهْرٍ فِيهِ مِثْلُ النُّجُومِ أَبَارِيقُ شَرَابُهُ أَشَدُّ بَيَاضًا مِنْ الْفِضَّةِ مَنْ شَرِبَ مِنْهُ مَشْرَبًا لَمْ يَظْمَأْ بَعْدَهُ أَبَدًا ‏ ‏فَقَالَ ‏ ‏عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ ‏ ‏مَا سَمِعْتُ فِي الْحَوْضِ حَدِيثًا أَثْبَتَ مِنْ هَذَا فَصَدَّقَ بِهِ وَأَخَذَ الصَّحِيفَةَ فَحَبَسَهَا عِنْدَهُ ‏

English Translation

It was narrated from 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr (رضي الله عنهما) — [continuation] — that he said: 'Lo, your appointed meeting is my Basin. Its width and length are equal — [the distance] between Ayla and Mecca — a month's journey. In it are vessels like the stars [in number]. Its drink is whiter than silver. Whoever drinks from it one sip will never be thirsty afterward.' ['Ubayd Allah ibn Ziyad] said: 'I have heard nothing about the Basin more [compelling] than this.'
