أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَتَّابٍ الْمَكِّيُّ ثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ أَبِي هِنْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ حَدَّثَنِي طَلْحَةُ النَّضْرِيُّ قَالَ
كَانَ الرَّجُلُ مِنَّا إِذَا قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ نَزَلَ الصُّفَّةَ وَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ بِهَا عَرِيفٌ نَزَلَ عَلَى عَرِيفِهِ وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ بِهَا عَرِيفٌ نَزَلَ الصُّفَّةَ فَقَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لِي بِهَا عَرِيفٌ فَنَزَلْتُ الصُّفَّةَ وَكَانَ يَجِيءُ عَلَيْنَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ مُدٌّ مِنْ تَمْرِ بَيْنَ اثْنَيْنِ وَيَكْسُونَا الْخُنُفَ فَصَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعْضَ صَلَوَاتِ النَّهَارِ فَلَمَّا سَلَّمَ نَادَاهُ أَهْلُ الصُّفَّةِ يَمِينًا وَشِمَالًا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَحَرَقَ بُطُونَنَا التَّمْرُ وَتَخَرَّقَتْ عَنَّا الْخُنُفُ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى مِنْبَرِهِ فَصَعِدَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ شِدَّةَ مَا لَقِيَ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ حَتَّى قَالَ «وَلَقَدْ أُتِيَ عَلَيَّ وَعَلَى صَاحِبِي بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ مَا لِي وَلَهُ طَعَامٌ إِلَّا الْبَرِيرُ» قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لِأَبِي حَرْبٍ وَأَيُّ شَيْءٍ الْبَرِيرُ؟ قَالَ طَعَامُ سُوءٍ ثَمَرُ الْأَرَاكِ «فَقَدِمْنَا عَلَى إِخْوَانِنَا هَؤُلَاءِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ وَعَظِيمُ طَعَامُهُمُ التَّمْرُ فَوَاسُونَا فِيهِ وَوَاللَّهِ لَوْ أَجِدُ لَكُمُ الْخُبْزَ وَاللَّحْمَ لَأَشْبَعْتُكُمْ مِنْهُ وَلَكِنْ عَسَى أَنْ تُدْرِكُوا زَمَانًا أَوْ مَنْ أَدْرَكَهُ مِنْكُمْ يُغْدَى وَيُرَاحُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجِفَانِ وَتَلْبَسُونَ مِثْلَ أَسْتَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ» قَالَ دَاوُدُ قَالَ لِي أَبُو حَرْبٍ «يَا دَاوُدُ وَهَلْ تَدْرِي مَا كَانَ أَسْتَارُ الْكَعْبَةِ يَوْمَئِذٍ؟» قُلْتُ لَا قَالَ «ثِيَابٌ بِيضٌ كَانَ تُؤْتَى بِهَا مِنَ الْيَمَنِ» صحيح

✧ When a man from among us came to Madinah, he would stay in the Suffah. If he had an overseer there, he would stay with his overseer; if he had no overseer there, he would stay in the Suffah. I came to Madinah and had no overseer there, so I stayed in the Suffah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to come to us every day with a mudd of dates shared between two, and he would clothe us in coarse cloth. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed one of the daytime prayers with us. When he said the salam, the people of the Suffah called out to him from the right and left: O Messenger of Allah, the dates have burned our stomachs and the coarse cloth has worn out. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to his pulpit, ascended it, praised Allah and extolled Him, then mentioned the hardship he had faced from his people until he said, "There came upon me and my companion a period of more than ten nights when we had no food except berir." I said to Abu Harb, "What is berir?" He said, "Bad food, the fruit of the arak tree." He said, "We came to these brothers of ours from the Ansar, and their main food was dates, so they shared them with us. By Allah, if I could find bread and meat for you, I would fill you with it. But perhaps you will live to see a time, or whoever among you lives to see it, when large platters will be brought to you morning and evening, and you will wear garments like the coverings of the Kaaba." Dawud said: Abu Harb said to me, "O Dawud, do you know what the coverings of the Kaaba were in those days?" I said, "No." He said, "White garments that were brought from Yemen." Sahih.
