The Cistern Before Us

SUMMARY: This hadith speaks of a cistern that will be present before the people.

حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَعُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، - وَهُوَ الْقَطَّانُ - عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ أَمَامَكُمْ حَوْضًا كَمَا بَيْنَ جَرْبَا وَأَذْرُحَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ الْمُثَنَّى ‏"‏ حَوْضِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of a cistern that will be present before the people. It is narrated by two different narrators, Ibn 'Umar and Ibn Muthanna, who both mention this cistern extending from Jarba' and Adhruh. The exact words used by each narrator differ slightly; one says "a cistern" while the other says "my cistern". This could suggest that this is an important or special cistern, perhaps even one with spiritual significance. Whatever its purpose may be, it is clear from this hadith that it will have some importance to those who come after us.
