Musnad Ahmad 15692

Translation

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ used to send us out on expeditions, my son, and we had no provisions except the old dates, which he would distribute by the handful, until it came down to a single date at a time. He said: I said to him: O father, what can a single date avail you? He said: Do not say that, my son, for after we lost it, we yearned for it.
