أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ السَّعْدِيُّ بِخَبَرٍ غَرِيبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عِكْرِمَةُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ خَرَجَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ بِالْهَاجِرَةِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَسَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا أَخْرَجَكَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ قَالَ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَّا مَا أَجِدُ مِنْ حَاقِّ الْجُوعِ قَالَ وَأَنَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي غَيْرُهُ فَبَيْنَمَا هُمَا كَذَلِكَ إِذْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ

«مَا أَخْرَجَكُمَا هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ » قَالَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنَا إِلَّا مَا نَجِدُ فِي بُطُونِنَا مِنْ حَاقِّ الْجُوعِ قَالَ «وَأَنَا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا أَخْرَجَنِي غَيْرُهُ فَقُومَا» فَانْطَلَقُوا حَتَّى أَتَوْا بَابَ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ وَكَانَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ يَدَّخِرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ طَعَامًا أَوْ لَبَنًا فَأَبْطَأَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ فَلَمْ يَأْتِ لِحِينِهِ فَأَطْعَمَهُ لِأَهْلِهِ وَانْطَلَقَ إِلَى نَخْلِهِ يَعْمَلُ فِيهِ فَلَمَّا انْتَهَوْا إِلَى الْبَابِ خَرَجَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ فَقَالَتْ مَرْحَبًا بِنَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَبِمَنْ مَعَهُ فَقَالَ لَهَا نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَأَيْنَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ؟ » فَسَمِعَهُ وَهُوَ يَعْمَلُ فِي نَخْلٍ لَهُ فَجَاءَ يَشْتَدُّ فَقَالَ مَرْحَبًا بِنَبِيِّ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَبِمَنْ مَعَهُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ لَيْسَ بِالْحِينِ الَّذِي كُنْتَ تَجِيءُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «صَدَقْتَ» قَالَ فَانْطَلَقَ فَقَطَعَ عِذْقًا مِنَ النَّخْلِ فِيهِ مِنْ كُلِّ التَّمْرِ وَالرُّطَبِ وَالْبُسْرِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا أَرَدْتُ إِلَى هَذَا أَلَا جَنَيْتَ لَنَا مِنْ تَمْرِهِ» فَقَالَ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ مِنْ تَمْرِهِ وَرُطَبِهِ وَبُسْرِهِ وَلَأَذْبَحَنَّ لَكَ مَعَ هَذَا قَالَ «إِنْ ذَبَحْتَ فَلَا تَذْبَحَنَّ ذَاتَ دَرٍّ» فَأَخَذَ عَنَاقًا أَوْ جَدْيًا فَذَبَحَهُ وَقَالَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ اخْبِزِي وَاعْجِنِي لَنَا وَأَنْتِ أَعْلَمُ بِالْخَبْزِ فَأَخَذَ الْجَدْيَ فَطَبَخَهُ وَشَوَى نِصْفَهُ فَلَمَّا أَدْرَكَ الطَّعَامُ وُضِعَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابِهِ فَأَخَذَ مِنَ الْجَدْيِ فَجَعَلَهُ فِي رَغِيفٍ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ أَبْلِغْ بِهَذَا فَاطِمَةَ فَإِنَّهَا لَمْ تُصِبْ مِثْلَ هَذَا مُنْذُ أَيَّامٍ» فَذَهَبَ بِهِ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ إِلَى فَاطِمَةَ فَلَمَّا أَكَلُوا وَشَبِعُوا قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «خُبْزٌ وَلَحْمٌ وَتَمْرٌ وَبُسْرٌ وَرُطَبٌ» وَدَمِعَتْ عَيْنَاهُ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ إِنَّ هَذَا لَهُوَ النَّعِيمُ الَّذِي تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {ثُمَّ لَتُسْأَلُنَّ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَنِ النَّعِيمِ} فَهَذَا النَّعِيمُ الَّذِي تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» فَكَبُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ «بَلْ إِذَا أَصَبْتُمْ مِثْلَ هَذَا فَضَرَبْتُمْ بِأَيْدِيكُمْ فَقُولُوا بِسْمِ اللَّهِ وَإِذَا شَبِعْتُمْ فَقُولُوا الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي هُوَ أَشْبَعَنَا وَأَنْعَمَ عَلَيْنَا وَأَفْضَلَ فَإِنَّ هَذَا كَفَافٌ بِهَا» فَلَمَّا نَهَضَ قَالَ لِأَبِي أَيُّوبَ «ائْتِنَا غَدًا» وَكَانَ لَا يَأْتِي إِلَيْهِ أَحَدٌ مَعْرُوفًا إِلَّا أَحَبَّ أَنْ يُجَازِيَهُ قَالَ وَإِنَّ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَمَرَكَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهَ غَدًا فَأَتَاهُ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَأَعْطَاهُ وَلِيدَتَهُ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا أَيُّوبَ اسْتَوْصِ بِهَا خَيْرًا فَإِنَّا لَمْ نَرَ إِلَّا خَيْرًا مَا دَامَتْ عِنْدَنَا» فَلَمَّا جَاءَ بِهَا أَبُو أَيُّوبَ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَا أَجِدُ لَوَصِيَّةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَيْرًا مِنْ أَنْ أَعْتِقَهَا فَأَعْتَقَهَا

✧ “What brought you two out at this hour?” They said: By Allah, nothing brought us out except the pangs of hunger we feel in our bellies. He said: “By the One in whose hand is my soul, nothing brought me out either except that. So get up.” They went until they came to the door of Abu Ayyub al-Ansari. Abu Ayyub used to keep aside food or milk for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, but that day he was late, and when he did not come at his usual time, he gave it to his family and went off to his palm grove to work. When they reached the door, his wife came out and said: Welcome to Allah's Prophet ﷺ and those with him. Allah's Prophet ﷺ said to her: “Where is Abu Ayyub?” He heard him while working in his palm grove and came running, saying: Welcome to Allah's Prophet ﷺ and those with him. O Prophet of Allah, this is not the usual time you come. The Prophet ﷺ said to him: “You are right.” He went and cut a bunch of dates from the palm tree, containing all kinds: dry dates, fresh ripe dates, and unripe dates. The Prophet ﷺ said: “I did not want this; could you not have picked only dry dates for us?” He said: O Prophet of Allah, I wanted you to eat from its dry dates, fresh dates, and unripe dates. And I will certainly slaughter something for you along with this. He said: “If you slaughter, do not slaughter a milk-giving animal.” So he took a young she-goat or a kid and slaughtered it, and said to his wife: Bake and knead for us; you know more about baking. He took the kid, cooked it, and roasted half of it. When the food was ready, it was placed before the Prophet ﷺ and his companions. He took some of the kid and placed it on a loaf, then said: “O Abu Ayyub, take this to Fatimah, for she has not had anything like this for days.” Abu Ayyub took it to Fatimah. When they had eaten and were satisfied, the Prophet ﷺ said: “Bread, meat, dry dates, unripe dates, and fresh dates.” His eyes filled with tears. “By the One in whose hand is my soul, this is the very bliss about which you will be questioned. Allah, Majestic and Exalted, said: 'Then you will surely be asked that Day about bliss' (Qur'an 102:8). This is the bliss about which you will be questioned on the Day of Resurrection.” This weighed heavily on his companions, so he said: “Rather, when you attain something like this and reach out your hands, say: 'In the name of Allah.' And when you are satisfied, say: 'Praise be to Allah who has satisfied us, blessed us, and favored us. This is enough for it.'” When he rose, he said to Abu Ayyub: “Come to us tomorrow.” He never received a favor from anyone but loved to repay it. Abu Ayyub did not hear that, so Umar said: The Prophet ﷺ ordered you to come to him tomorrow. So he went to him the next day, and the Prophet ﷺ gave him his slave girl, saying: “O Abu Ayyub, treat her well, for we have seen only good from her while she was with us.” When Abu Ayyub brought her from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: I find no better fulfillment of the Messenger of Allah's ﷺ instruction than to free her. So he freed her.
