أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنِ الْجَعْدِ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ
تَزَوَّجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَدَخَلَ بِأَهْلِهِ قَالَ فَصَنَعَتْ أُمِّي أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ حَيْسًا قَالَ فَذَهَبْتُ بِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ أُمِّي تُقْرِئُكَ السَّلَامَ وَتَقُولُ إِنَّ هَذَا لَكَ مِنَّا قَلِيلٌ قَالَ «ضَعْهُ» ثُمَّ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَادْعُ لِي فُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا وَفُلَانًا وَمَنْ لَقِيتَ وَسَمَّى رِجَالًا فَدَعَوْتُ مَنْ سَمَّى وَمَنْ لَقِيتُ قُلْتُ لِأَنَسٍ عَدَدُ كَمْ كَانُوا؟ قَالَ وَذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا زُهَاءَ مِائَةٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لِيَتَحَلَّقْ عَشَرَةٌ عَشَرَةٌ وَلْيَأْكُلْ كُلُّ إِنْسَانٍ مِمَّا يَلِيهِ» فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا فَخَرَجَتْ طَائِفَةٌ وَدَخَلَتْ طَائِفَةٌ قَالَ لِي «يَا أَنَسُ ارْفَعْ» فَرَفَعْتُ فَمَا أَدْرِي حِينَ رَفَعْتُ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ أَمْ حِينَ وَضَعْتُ؟

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ got married and consummated his marriage. He said: “My mother Umm Sulaym made ḥays (a dish of dates, butter, and curd).” He said: “I took it to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said: ‘My mother sends you greetings and says: This is a small gift from us for you.’ He said: ‘Put it down.’ Then he said: ‘Go and invite so-and-so, so-and-so, and so-and-so, and whoever you meet.’ He named some men. I invited those he named and whoever I met.” I said to Anas: “How many were they?” He said: “He mentioned a word meaning about a hundred.” The Messenger of God ﷺ said: “Let them sit in groups of ten, and let each person eat from what is nearest to him.” They ate until they were full. One group went out and another came in. He said to me: “O Anas, lift it up.” So I lifted it, and I do not know whether it was more when I lifted it or when I set it down.”
