In another rendering of the preceding miracle it reads, "There were about three hundred people. I, (Anas) was told to take the bowl away, and commented, 'I do not know whether there was more in it than when I put it down, or when I had picked it up."

Abdullah, Jabir's father passed away in debt. Jabir offered his capital to his father's creditors who were Jews, but they refused the offer, and there were insufficient dates in the harvest to repay two years of debts. The Prophet told Jabir to divide the creditors into groups, beginning with the basic debts, and to tell him once he had done so. The Prophet went amongst the creditors and Jabir paid his father's debts in full. After all had been paid, what remained was the usual crop of dates harvested each year. It has also been reported the same amount that had been used to repay remained. The creditors were astounded!

Abu Hurayrah also tells us of the time, when he was in the company of the Prophet and felt very hungry, whereupon the Prophet asked him to accompany him. A cup of milk had been given to the Prophet , so he asked the people of the Suffa to come. Abu Hurayrah, who was weak from hunger asked, "Is the milk for them? I am in greater need of it to regain my strength." Abu Hurayrah did as he was asked, and called the people to come and drink. Each of the people of the Suffa drank from the milk, until they were satisfied, then the Prophet took the cup and said, "You and I remain, sit and drink". Abu Hurayrah started to drink, and the Prophet kept telling him to drink more until he exclaimed, 'No, by the One who sent you with the truth, there is no room for anymore, whereupon the Prophet took the cup, praised Allah and said, "In the Name of Allah", and drank the remainder.

As we mentioned before, all of these reports are authentic, and confirmed by the Companions of the Prophet, may Allah be pleased with them. Miracles such as these have also been narrated by numerous followers, and recorded in the well-known authentic references of Prophetic Sayings.

The Trees That Spoke and Responded to the Prophet

Omar's son tells of the time, he and others accompanied the Prophet upon a journey, when a Bedouin came to him, so the Prophet asked where he was going. The Bedouin replied that he was going to his family, whereupon the Prophet asked, "Do you want something good?" The Bedouin asked, "What is it?" to which the Prophet replied, "It is that you bear witness that there is no god except Allah, alone without a partner, and that Muhammad is His worshiper and Messenger." The Bedouin inquired, "Who will bear witness to what you say?" He replied, "That Mimosa tree", whereupon the tree advanced from the edge of a dried-up water
