وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ وَاقِدٍ، بَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ رَاشِدٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيُّ، نَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ، عَنْ أَبِي رُومَانَ قَالَ:
سُئِلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ عَنْ طَعَامِ الْعُرْسِ، فَقِيلَ: يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، مَا لِطَعَامِ الْعُرْسِ أَطْيَبَ مِنْ رِيحِ طَعَامِنَا ؟ فَقَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: « فِي طَعَامِ الْعُرْسِ مِثْقَالٌ مِنْ رِيحِ الْجَنَّةِ ». قَالَ عُمَرُ ؓ: « دَعَا لَهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ الْخَلِيلُ عَلَيْهِ الصَّلَاةُ وَالسَّلَامُ وَمُحَمَّدٌ ﷺ أَنْ يُبَارَكَ فِيهِ وَيُطَيِّبَهُ

✧ Umar b. al-Khattab ؓ was asked about wedding feast food, and it was said: “O Commander of the Believers, what food is more fragrant than the aroma of our food?” He said: “I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: ‘In wedding feast food there is a measure of the fragrance of Paradise.’” Umar ؓ said: “Ibrahim the Friend ﷺ and Muhammad ﷺ prayed for it to be blessed and made pleasant.”
