قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ السَّامِيُّ، ثَنَا حَمَّادٌ - هُوَ ابْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَحْيَى، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ لَمْ أَرَ رَجُلًا قَطُّ أَعْظَمَ مِنْهُ وَلَا أَطْوَلَ، قَالَ:
أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فِي أَزْمَةٍ أَوْ أَزْلَةٍ أَصَابَتِ النَّاسَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِأَصْحَابِهِ: تَوَزَّعُوهُمْ فَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ يَأْخُذُ بِيَدِ الرَّجُلِ، وَالرَّجُلُ يَأْخُذُ بِيَدِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ، فَكَانَ الْقَوْمُ يَتَحَامَوْنَنِي لِمَا يَرَوْنَ مِنْ طُولِي وَعِظَمِي، فَأَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِي، فَذَهَبَ بِي إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ، فَحَلَبَ شَاةً، فَشَرِبْتُ لَبَنَهَا، ثُمَّ حَلَبَ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبْتُ لَبَنَهَا، حَتَّى حَلَبَ لِي سَبْعًا، قَالَ: فَذَهَبْتُ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ مِنَ الْغَدِ أَسْلَمْتُ، ثُمَّ جِئْتُ فَحَلَبَ لِي شَاةً وَاحِدَةً، فَشَبِعْتُ وَرَوِيتُ، فَقُلْتُ: وَاللهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا شَبِعْتُ قَطُّ وَلَا رَوِيتُ قَبْلَ الْيَوْمِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: الْمُؤْمِنُ يَشْرَبُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ، وَالْكَافِرُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ

✧ I came to the Prophet ﷺ during a famine or distress that had befallen the people. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his companions: 'Distribute them among yourselves.' So a man would take the hand of one man, and a man would take the hands of two men. The people were avoiding me because of what they saw of my height and size, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took my hand and took me to his house. He milked a sheep, and I drank its milk. Then he milked another, and I drank its milk, until he had milked seven for me. He said: So I left. Then when the next day came, I embraced Islam. Then I came, and he milked a single sheep for me, and I was full and quenched. I said: 'By Allah, O Messenger of Allah, I have never been full or quenched before today.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The believer drinks in one intestine, and the disbeliever in seven intestines.'
