أَخْبَرَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ هُوَ الْعَطَّارُ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ أَنَّهُ

طَبَخَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ قِدْرًا فَقَالَ لَهُ «نَاوِلْنِي ذِرَاعَهَا» وَكَانَ يُعْجِبُهُ الذِّرَاعُ فَنَاوَلَهُ الذِّرَاعَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلَهُ ذِرَاعًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ وَكَمْ لِلشَّاةِ مِنْ ذِرَاعٍ؟ فَقَالَ «وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ أَنْ لَوْ سَكَتَّ لَأُعْطِيتُ أَذْرُعًا مَا دَعَوْتُ بِهِ»

✧ He cooked a pot for the Prophet ﷺ, and he said to him, 'Hand me its foreleg,' and he liked the foreleg. He handed him the foreleg, then said, 'Hand me the foreleg,' and he handed him a foreleg. Then he said, 'Hand me the foreleg,' and I said, 'O Prophet of Allah, how many forelegs does a sheep have?' He said, 'By the One in whose hand is my soul, if you had remained silent, I would have been given forelegs for as long as I called for them.'
