3.663:
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: "Allah's Apostle sent an army
towards the east coast and appointed Abu 'Ubaida bin Al−Jarrah
as their chief, and the army consisted of three−hundred men
including myself. We marched on till we reached a place where
our food was about to finish. Abu− 'Ubaida ordered us to
collect all the journey food and it was collected. My (our)
journey food was dates. Abu 'Ubaida kept on giving us our
daily ration in small amounts from it, till it was exhausted.
The share of everyone of us used to be one date only." I said,
"How could one date benefit you?" Jabir replied, "We came to
know its value when even that too finished." Jabir added,
"When we reached the sea−shore, we saw a huge fish which was
like a small mountain. The army ate from it for eighteen days.
Then Abu 'Ubaida ordered that two of its ribs be fixed and
they were fixed in the ground. Then he ordered that a
she−camel be ridden and it passed under the two ribs (forming
an arch) without touching them."

Narrated Salama:
Once the journey food diminished and the people were reduced
to poverty. They went to the Prophet and asked his permission
to slaughter their camels, and he agreed. `Umar met them and
they told him about it, and he said, "How would you survive
after slaughtering your camels?" Then he went to the Prophet
and said, "O Allah's Apostle! How would they survive after
slaughtering their camels?" Allah's Apostle ordered `Umar,
"Call upon the people to bring what has remained of their
food." A leather sheet was spread and al I the journey food
was collected and heaped over it. Allah's Apostle stood up and
invoked Allah to bless it, and then directed all the people to
come with their utensils, and they started taking from it till
all of them got what was sufficient for them. Allah's Apostle
then said, "I testify that None has the right to be worshipped
but Allah, and I am His Apostle. "
