حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أخبرنا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ أَبُو طَالُوتَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ شَهِدْتُ أَبَا بَرْزَةَ دَخَلَ عَلَى عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَحَدَّثَنِي فُلَانٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏سَمَّاهُ مُسْلِمٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ فِي السِّمَاطِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا رَآهُ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ مُحَمَّدِيَّكُمْ هَذَا الدَّحْدَاحُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَفَهِمَهَا الشَّيْخُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا كُنْتُ أَحْسَبُ أَنِّي أَبْقَى فِي قَوْمٍ يُعَيِّرُونِي بِصُحْبَةِ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهُ عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ صُحْبَةَ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَكَ زَيْنٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏غَيْرُ شَيْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّمَا بَعَثْتُ إِلَيْكَ لِأَسْأَلَكَ عَنِ الْحَوْضِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏سَمِعْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَذْكُرُ فِيهِ شَيْئًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَرْزَةَ:‏‏‏‏ نَعَمْ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا مَرَّةً، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا ثِنْتَيْنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا ثَلَاثًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا أَرْبَعًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا خَمْسًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَنْ كَذَّبَ بِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَا سَقَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ خَرَجَ مُغْضَبًا .

I saw Abu Barzah رضی اللہ عنہ who came to visit Ubaydullah ibn Ziyad. Then a man named Muslim who was there in the company mentioned it to me. When Ubaydullah saw him, he said: This Muhammad of yours is a dwarf and fat. The old man (i. e. Abu Barzah) understood it. So he said: I did not think that I should remain among people who would make me feel ashamed of the company of Muhammad صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. Thereupon Ubaydullah said: The company of Muhammad صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم is a honour for you, not a disgrace. He added: I called for you to ask about the reservoir. Did you hear the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم mentioning anything about it? Abu Barzah said: Yes, not once, twice, thrice, four times or five times. If anyone believes it, may Allah not supply him with water from it. He then went away angrily.
