أَخْبَرَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ سُهَيْلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ضَافَهُ ضَيْفٌ وَهُوَ كَافِرٌ فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ فَحَلَبَتْ لَهُ فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا ثُمَّ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبَهُ وَأُخْرَى فَشَرِبَهُ حَتَّى شَرِبَ حِلَابَ سَبْعِ شِيَاهٍ ثُمَّ أَصْبَحَ مِنَ الْغَدِ فَأَسْلَمَ فَأَمَرَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِشَاةٍ فَحُلِبَتْ فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِأُخْرَى فَلَمْ يَسْتَتِمَّهَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الْمُسْلِمُ يَشْرَبُ فِي مَعِيٍّ وَاحِدٍ وَالْكَافِرُ يَشْرَبُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»

✧ A guest came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was a disbeliever, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered a sheep, and it was milked for him; he drank its milk. Then another, and he drank it; and another, and he drank it, until he had drunk the milk of seven sheep. Then the next morning he became Muslim, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered a sheep for him; it was milked, and he drank its milk. Then he ordered another, but he did not finish it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The Muslim drinks in one intestine, and the disbeliever drinks in seven intestines."
