حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَأَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ عَنْ الْمُهَاجِرِ بْنِ مِسْمَارٍ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ قَالَ کَتَبْتُ إِلَی جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ مَعَ غُلَامِي نَافِعٍ أَخْبِرْنِي بِشَيْئٍ سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فَکَتَبَ إِلَيَّ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ أَنَا الْفَرَطُ عَلَی الْحَوْضِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 6003
Amir b. Sa'd b. Abu Waqqas reported: I wrote (a letter) to Jabir b. Samura (and it was sent) through my servant Nafi' asking him to inform me about something (pertaining to the Haud Kauthar). He wrote to me: I heard him (the Holy Prophet) say: I shall be there ahead of you at the Haud Kauthar.
