Then she sent me to the markets—and the markets were their walled gardens—so I brought them some firewood, and she made a flat loaf from it.” Then he said, “Do you have any condiment?” She said, “I had a small skin of ghee, but I do not know whether anything remains in it.” So she brought it to him and he squeezed it. He said, “Squeezing by two is more effective than squeezing by one.” So they squeezed it together and extracted about the size of a date. She greased the flat loaf, then he called me and said, “O Anas, do you know the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “I left him with his companions in the Suffah teaching them. Invite him, but do not invite anyone else with him.

That day they were eighty men. He held my hand, and when I drew near the house, I pulled my hand from his.

He said, “It will not harm you.” Then he ordered them and they sat down. Then he entered and we brought him the flat loaf. He said, “Is there any condiment?” Umm Sulaym said, “O Messenger of Allah, we had a small skin, and Abu Talhah and I squeezed it.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Bring it, for squeezing by three is more effective than squeezing by two.” So it was brought, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ squeezed it, and they extracted from it the size of a date. They wiped the flat loaf with it, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wiped it with his hand. Then he invoked blessing over it, then said, “Call ten for me.” So I called ten, and they ate from it until they were full to satiety. They kept entering ten by ten until all were full.

     أَبُو طَلْحَةَ يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ اصْنَعِي شَيْئًا لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَطَحَنَتْ شَيْئًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ فَصَنَعَتْهُ ثُمَّ دَعَانِي أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْ إِنَّ أَبِي يَدْعُوكَ وَأَسِرَّهُ قَالَ أَنَسٌ فَأَقْبَلْتُ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَالِسٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي قَالَ «يَا أَنَسُ» قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ «دَعَانِي أَبُوكَ؟» قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ «قُومُوا» ثُمَّ قَالَ لَمْ يَمُرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى مَجْلِسٍ إِلَّا قَالَ «قُومُوا» فَخَرَجْتُ سَرِيعًا حَتَّى أَتَيْتُ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ جَاءَ وَأَتَى بِالنَّاسِ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَلَمْ آمُرْكَ أَنْ تَخْلُوَ بِهِ؟ قُلْتُ لَمَّا سَأَلَنِي هَلْ دَعَانِي أَبُوكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ لَمْ أَكْذِبْهُ وَلَقِيَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى بَابِ الدَّارِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللِّهِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ شَيْءٌ أَرَدْنَا أَنْ نَخُصَّكَ بِهِ فَقَالَ «ادْخُلْ» فَدَخَلَ هُوَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ وَأُمُّ سُلَيْمٌ مَعَهَا عُكَّةٌ تَعْصُرُهَا وَكَانَتْ يَبِسَتْ أَوْ كَادَتْ تَيْبَسُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ نَاوِلِنِيهَا حَتَّى أَكُونَ أَحْسَنَ لَهَا عَصْرًا مِنْكِ» فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ فَقَالَ بِالسَّمْنِ هَكَذَا ثُمَّ وَضَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَدَهُ عَلَى رَأْسِ الثَّرِيدِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا أَبَا طَلْحَةَ أَدْخِلْ عَشْرَةً» فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ عَشْرَةٌ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا ثُمَّ لَمْ يَزَلْ يُدْخِلُ عَشْرَةً عَشْرَةً فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى ثَمِلُوا حَتَّى دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ مَا بَيْنَ السَّبْعِينَ إِلَّى الثَّمَانِينَ ثُمَّ أًَكَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَهْلُ الْبَيْتِ وَأَفْضَلُوا مَا أَهْدَوْا لِجِيرَانِهِمْ

     ✧ Abu Talhah said, “O Umm Sulaym, prepare something for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.” She ground some barley and prepared it. Then Abu Talhah called me and said, “Go to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and say, ‘My father invites you,’ and keep it secret.” Anas said: I went while the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting in the mosque. When he saw me he said, “O Anas.” I said, “At your service, O Messenger of Allah.” He said, “Did your father invite me?” I said, “Yes.” He said, “Get up.” Then he said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not pass by any gathering except that he said, “Get up.” I went out quickly until I came to Abu Talhah and said, “Here is the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he has come with the people.” Abu Talhah said, “Did I not order you to be alone with him?” I said, “When he asked me, ‘Did your father invite me?’ I said, ‘Yes’; I did not lie to him.” Abu Talhah met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the door of the house and said, “O Messenger of Allah, it is only a little something we wanted to reserve for you.” He said, “Enter.” So he entered with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: Umm Sulaym had a small skin of ghee which she was squeezing, and it had dried or almost dried. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “O Umm Sulaym, hand it to me so that I may squeeze it better than you.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took it in his hand and did thus with the ghee. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed his hand on the top of the tharid and said, “O Abu Talhah, admit ten.” So ten entered and ate until they were full. He kept admitting ten by ten, and they ate until they were satiated, until between seventy and eighty entered. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the household ate, and they had leftovers which they gave as a gift to their neighbors.

     ✧ He heard Anas b. Malik say: I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day and found him sitting with his companions, talking to them, and he had tied a stone over his stomach. I said to one of his companions, “Why has the Messenger of Allah ﷺ tied his stomach?” He said, “From hunger.” So I went to Abu Talhah, who was the husband of Umm Sulaym bt. Milhan, and said, “O father, I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ tie his stomach with a band. I asked one of his companions, and he said, ‘From hunger.’” Abu Talhah went in to my mother and said, “Is there anything?” She said, “I have pieces of bread and some dates. If the Prophet ﷺ comes alone, we can satisfy him; but if someone comes with him, it will be too little for them.” Abu Talhah said, “Go, O Anas, and stand near the Messenger of Allah. When he gets up, invite him after his companions and those with him have dispersed. When he stands at the threshold of his door, say, ‘My father invites you.’” I did that. When I said, “My father invites you,” he said to his companions, “O these, come.” Then he took my hand and squeezed it, and came with his companions until they drew near our house. Then he released my hand, and I entered feeling sad because of the large number who came with him. I said, “O father, I said to the Messenger of Allah what you told me, and he called his companions and has come with them.” Abu Talhah went out to them and said, “O Messenger of Allah, I only sent Anas to invite you alone, and I do not have enough to satisfy those I see.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Enter, for Allah ﷻ will satisfy them with what you have.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered with me and said, “Gather whatever you have and bring it near.” Those with him sat at the doorstep. I brought what we had of bread and dates, and we placed it on our mat. He invoked blessing over it, then said, “Admit eight to me.” I admitted eight, and he placed his palm over the food and said, “Eat and mention the name of Allah.” They ate from between his fingers until they were full. Then he ordered me, and I admitted eight more while the first group left. They entered and ate until they were full. Then he ordered me, and I admitted eight more. He continued like that until eighty men entered, all eating until full. Then he called me and my mother and Abu Talhah and said, “Eat.” We ate until we were full. Then he lifted his hand and said, “O Umm Sulaym, where is this compared to your food when you presented it?” She said, “May my father and mother be ransomed for you! Had I not seen them eating, I would have said that nothing of our food had decreased.”

     ✧ Umm Sulaym bt. Milhan was married to Abu Talhah. She prepared a khazirah. Then Abu Talhah said to me, “Go, my son, and invite the Messenger of Allah.” I went and invited him. I came to him while he was among the people, and I said, “My father invites you.” He said to the people, “Go.” When I saw that he said to the people, I went ahead of them until I came to Abu Talhah and said, “O father, here is the Messenger of Allah with the people.” Abu Talhah stood at the door until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, then said, “O Messenger of Allah, it was only a little something.” He said, “Bring it, for Allah will put blessing in it.” So he brought it, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ put his hands in it and invoked blessing over it, until eighty men ate from it.

     ✧ When Abu Talhah saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ hungry, he came to Umm Sulaym and said, “I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ hungry. Do you have anything?” She said, “We have about two mudds of barley flour.” He said, “Knead it and bake it; perhaps we can invite the Prophet ﷺ to eat from it.” She kneaded it and baked it, and it came out as one flat loaf. He said to me, “Invite the Messenger of Allah.” So I went to the Prophet ﷺ while there were people with him—I think he said about eighty-some. I said, “O Messenger of Allah, Abu Talhah invites you.” He said to his companions, “Answer Abu Talhah’s invitation.” I came back quickly and told him that he and his companions were coming. He said, “By Allah, the Messenger of Allah knows better what is in my house than I do.” Abu Talhah went out to meet him and said, “By Allah, we have nothing but one flat loaf. I saw you hungry, so I ordered Umm Sulaym to make a flat loaf for you.” He called for the flat loaf and for a large bowl, placed it in it, and said, “Is there any ghee?” Abu Talhah said, “There was something in the small skin.” He said: So he brought it, and the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Talhah squeezed it until some came out. The Prophet ﷺ wiped his forefinger with it, then wiped the flat loaf, then said, “In the name of Allah.” The flat loaf swelled, and he continued doing that while the flat loaf swelled until I saw the flat loaf in the bowl turning liquid. Then he said, “Call ten of my companions for me.” I called ten for him, and the Prophet ﷺ placed the flat loaf and said, “Eat, in the name of Allah.” They ate from around the flat loaf until they were full. He kept calling ten by ten, and they ate that flat loaf until eighty-some men ate from around the flat loaf until they were full. He said: And indeed the middle of the flat loaf, where the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had placed his hand, remained as it was.

The people went with him, and he brought the food, which he had made only for the Prophet ﷺ. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed his hand and invoked the name of Allah over it, then said, 'Give permission to ten.' So I gave them permission, and they entered. He said, 'Eat, in the name of Allah.' They ate until they were full, then they rose. The Prophet ﷺ placed his hand as he had done the first time and invoked the name, then said, 'Give permission to ten.' He said, 'Until he had done that with eighty men. Then the Prophet ﷺ and the household ate, and they left leftovers.'

     ✧ Abu Talha, who was his paternal uncle and his mother's husband, brought two mudds of barley. He ordered them to be prepared. Then he said to me, 'Go and invite the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for us.' I invited him, and he said to the people, 'Arise.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came, and I walked ahead of him until I entered upon Abu Talha. He said, 'What have you done, or what did you make?' I said, 'I have invited the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said to the people, "Arise."' He said, 'Did you not know what we have?' I said, 'Yes, but I could not say anything to the Messenger of Allah.' When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ reached the door, he called ten at a time. He spoke as Allah willed, then said to the people, 'Eat.' They ate until they were full, then they left. He called another ten, until eighty men ate from it, and there remained enough for the household to eat their fill.

Malik say: Abu Talha came one day and found the Prophet ﷺ standing, teaching the people of the Suffah, with a small rock on his stomach to hold it up from hunger. He returned to Umm Sulaym and said, 'I have seen something regarding the Messenger of Allah that angered me. Do you have anything?' She said, 'Yes, a little barley.' He said to me, 'Prepare it.' I prepared it. Then he said to me, 'Go and invite the Prophet of Allah, and let no one know about you.' Anas said, 'When the Prophet ﷺ saw me, he said, "Did Abu Talha send you?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Arise." Seventy men arose with him. I came to Abu Talha and informed him. He said, "O Prophet of Allah, it is only a little something we made for you. By Allah, we do not have enough to satisfy them." He said, "Bring what you have." I brought it to him. Umm Sulaym had a small skin of clarified butter, and she kept squeezing it to season the food with it. Then he placed his hand and said, "Come, ten at a time." They began to eat, none of them refraining from another, until they were full and left leftovers, until Umm Sulaym gave some to her neighbors.'

She said, 'I adjure you by my right not to approach him, for he has not been better since he fell ill than he is tonight.' She brought his evening meal close, and he broke his fast. Then she took perfume and put it on herself, then she drew near to Abu Talha and he had relations with her. She said, 'O Abu Talha, suppose you saw neighbors who lent their neighbors something on loan, until they thought they had given it to them permanently. When they asked for it back, they felt resentment.' He said, 'They did badly.' She said, 'Allah lent you so-and-so, then He took him back from you, and He is more entitled to him.' He went to the Prophet ﷺ in the morning and told him the news. He said, 'O Allah, bless them in their night.' She conceived Abdullah b. Abi Talha and gave birth to him at the end of the night. She said, 'Do not disturb him until morning.' When morning came, she washed him and wrapped him, then called Anas and said, 'My son, take your brother to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' Anas said, 'I went carrying him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was standing in a waist-wrapper with a spade in his hand. He said, "O Anas, what is this with you?" I said, "My brother, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "Hand him to me." I handed him to him. He called for dates, chewed them, then placed them in his mouth.

     ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: H And Abu Zur'a 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Amr al-Dimashqi narrated to us: Adam narrated to us: Shayban narrated to us: H And al-Husayn b. Ishaq al-Tustari narrated to us: 'Uthman b. Abi Shayba narrated to us: al-Hasan b. Musa al-Ashyab narrated to us: Shayban narrated to us, from Layth, from 'Abd al-Malik b. Abi Bashir, from Hafsa bt. Sirin, from Umm Sulaym, the mother of Anas, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When a woman dies and they want to wash her, let them begin with her belly and wipe it gently. If she is not pregnant, then if she is pregnant, do not move her. If you want to wash her, begin with her lower half. Place a concealing garment over her private area. Then take a piece of cotton and wash her, and do it well. Then insert your hand under the garment and wipe her with cotton three times, wiping her well before performing her ablution. Then perform her ablution with water containing lote-tree leaves, and let a woman pour the water while standing, taking charge of nothing else, until she is cleansed with the lote-tree leaves while you are washing. Let the woman most entitled to her among her relatives undertake her washing, otherwise a pious woman. If she is young or weak, let a pious Muslim woman undertake it. When you finish washing her lower half with a clean washing using water and lote-tree leaves, perform her ablution as for prayer. This is the explanation of her ablution. Then wash her after that three times with water and lote-tree leaves, beginning with her head before anything else, and rinse the washing from the lote-tree leaves with water. Do not comb her hair with a comb. If something occurs from her after the three washings, make it five. If something occurs in the fifth, make it seven. All of that should be an odd number, with water and lote-tree leaves. If it is in the fifth or the third, add some camphor and some lote-tree leaves. Then put that in a new jar. Then sit her up and pour it over her, beginning with her head until you reach her feet. When you finish with her, place a clean garment over her. Then insert your hand from behind the garment and remove it from her. Then stuff her lower area with cotton as much as you can, and stuff the cotton with some of her perfume. Then take a long washed strip of cloth and tie it on her buttocks as a belt is tied. Then tie it between her thighs and press her thighs together. Then throw the end of the strip from her buttocks to near her knees. This is the matter of her lower area. Then perfume her and shroud her, and fold her hair into three braids—a forelock and two braids—and do not make her resemble men. Let her shroud be in five garments, one of which is the waist-wrapper with which you wrap her thighs. Do not remove anything from her hair with depilatory paste or anything else. Whatever falls from her hair, wash it, then stick it back into her head hair. Perfume her head hair and perfume it well. Do not wash her with heated water. Cover her and what you shroud her with with seven sprinklings if you wish, and make everything from them in odd numbers. If you prefer to cover her in her bier, make that an odd number as well. This is the matter of her shroud and her head. If she is drooping or constricted or similar, take a single piece of cloth and soak it in water, and make it follow every part of her, but do not move her, for I fear that something may escape from her that cannot be returned."
