أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ سَوَادَةَ أَنَّ سُحَيْمًا حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ رُوَيْفِعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
قُرِّبَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَمْرٌ وَرُطَبٌ فَأَكَلُوا مِنْهُ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا نَوَاةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَتَدْرُونَ مَا هَذَا؟ » قَالُوا اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ قَالَ «تَذْهَبُونَ الْخَيِّرَ فَالْخَيِّرَ حَتَّى لَا يَبْقَى مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا مِثْلُ هَذَا»

✧ Dates and fresh dates were brought near to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and they ate from them until none remained except a single stone. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: «Do you know what this is?» They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: «The good will depart, then the good, until none of you remains except the like of this.»
