He said: If we were a hundred thousand, it (i. e. the water in the well at Hudaibiya) would have sufficed us, but actually we were one thousand and five hundredRapporté par Salim b. Abu al-Ja’d : J’ai demandé à Jabir b. Abdullah combien de compagnons du Prophète avaient prêté serment sous l’arbre. Il a répondu : « Si nous avions été cent mille, l’eau du puits de Hudaibiya nous aurait suffi, mais en réalité, nous étions mille cinq cents. »Grades given by scholars
