أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ جِئْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا فَوَجَدْتُهُ جَالِسًا مَعَ أَصْحَابِهِ يُحَدِّثُهُمْ وَقَدْ عَصَبَ بَطْنَهُ عَلَى حَجَرٍ فَقُلْتُ لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ لِمَ عَصَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَطْنَهُ؟ فَقَالَ مِنَ الْجُوعِ فَذَهَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي طَلْحَةَ وَهُوَ زَوْجُ أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ بِنْتِ مِلْحَانَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتَاهُ قَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ عَصَبَ بَطْنَهُ بِعِصَابَةٍ فَسَأَلْتُ بَعْضَ أَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ مِنَ الْجُوعِ فَدَخَلَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ عَلَى أُمِّي فَقَالَ هَلْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ فَقَالَتْ عِنْدِي كِسَرٌ مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَتَمَرَاتٌ فَإِنْ جَاءَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَشْبَعْنَاهُ وَإِنْ جَاءَ مَعَهُ أَحَدٌ قَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ اذْهَبْ يَا أَنَسُ فَقُمْ قَرِيبًا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ فَإِذَا قَامَ فَادْعُهُ حَتَّى يَتَفَرَّقَ أَصْحَابُهُ وَمَنْ مَعَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا قَامَ عَلَى عَتَبَةِ بَابِهِ فَقُلْ أَبِي يَدْعُوكَ فَفَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ فَلَمَّا قُلْتُ أَبِي يَدْعُوكَ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ يَا هَؤُلَاءِ تَعَالَوْا ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَشَدَّهَا وَأَقْبَلَ بِأَصْحَابِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا دَنَوْا مِنْ بَيْتِنَا أَرْسَلَ يَدِي فَدَخَلْتُ وَأَنَا حَزِينٌ لِكَثْرَةِ مَنْ جَاءَ مَعَهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَتَاهُ قَدْ قُلْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ الَّذِي قُلْتَ لِي فَدَعَا أَصْحَابَهُ فَقَدْ جَاءَكَ بِهِمْ فَخَرَجَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا أَرْسَلْتُ أَنَسًا يَدْعُوكَ وَحْدَكَ وَلَمْ يَكُ عِنْدِي مَا يُشْبِعُ مَنْ أَرَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «ادْخُلْ فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ سَيُشْبِعُهُمْ بِمَا عِنْدَكَ» فَدَخَلَ مَعِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «اجْمَعُوا مَا كَانَ عِنْدَكُمْ ثُمَّ قَرِّبُوهُ» وَجَلَسَ مَنْ كَانَ عِنْدَهُ بِالسُّدَّةِ وَقَرَّبْتُ مَا كَانَ عِنْدَنَا مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَتَمْرٍ فَجَعَلْنَاهُ عَلَى حَصِيرِنَا فَدَعَا فِيهِ بِالْبَرَكَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَدْخِلْ عَلَيَّ ثَمَانِيَةً» فَأَدْخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ ثَمَانِيَةً وَجَعَلَ كَفَّهُ فَوْقَ الطَّعَامِ فَقَالَ «كُلُوا وَسَمُّوا اللهَ» فَأَكَلُوا مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ حَتَّى شَبِعُوا ثُمَّ أَمَرَنِي فَأَدْخَلْتُ ثَمَانِيَةً وَقَامَ الْأَوَّلُونَ فَفَعَلْتُ فَدَخَلُوا فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا ثُمَّ أَمَرَنِي فَأَدْخَلْتُ ثَمَانِيَةً فَمَا زَالَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ ثَمَانُونَ رَجُلًا كُلُّهُمْ يَأْكُلُ حَتَّى يَشْبَعَ ثُمَّ دَعَانِي وَدَعَا أُمِّي وَأَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَقَالَ «كُلُوا» فَأَكَلْنَا حَتَّى شَبِعْنَا ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَقَالَ «يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ أَيْنَ هَذَا مِنْ طَعَامِكِ حِينَ قَدَّمْتِيهِ» قَالَتْ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي لَوْلَا أَنِّي رَأَيْتُهُمْ يَأْكُلُونَ لَقُلْتُ مَا نَقَصَ مِنْ طَعَامِنَا شَيْءٌ

✧ He heard Anas b. Malik say: I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day and found him sitting with his companions, talking to them, and he had tied a stone over his stomach. I said to one of his companions, “Why has the Messenger of Allah ﷺ tied his stomach?” He said, “From hunger.” So I went to Abu Talhah, who was the husband of Umm Sulaym bt. Milhan, and said, “O father, I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ tie his stomach with a band. I asked one of his companions, and he said, ‘From hunger.’” Abu Talhah went in to my mother and said, “Is there anything?” She said, “I have pieces of bread and some dates. If the Prophet ﷺ comes alone, we can satisfy him; but if someone comes with him, it will be too little for them.” Abu Talhah said, “Go, O Anas, and stand near the Messenger of Allah. When he gets up, invite him after his companions and those with him have dispersed. When he stands at the threshold of his door, say, ‘My father invites you.’” I did that. When I said, “My father invites you,” he said to his companions, “O these, come.” Then he took my hand and squeezed it, and came with his companions until they drew near our house. Then he released my hand, and I entered feeling sad because of the large number who came with him. I said, “O father, I said to the Messenger of Allah what you told me, and he called his companions and has come with them.” Abu Talhah went out to them and said, “O Messenger of Allah, I only sent Anas to invite you alone, and I do not have enough to satisfy those I see.” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Enter, for Allah ﷻ will satisfy them with what you have.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered with me and said, “Gather whatever you have and bring it near.” Those with him sat at the doorstep. I brought what we had of bread and dates, and we placed it on our mat. He invoked blessing over it, then said, “Admit eight to me.” I admitted eight, and he placed his palm over the food and said, “Eat and mention the name of Allah.” They ate from between his fingers until they were full. Then he ordered me, and I admitted eight more while the first group left. They entered and ate until they were full. Then he ordered me, and I admitted eight more. He continued like that until eighty men entered, all eating until full. Then he called me and my mother and Abu Talhah and said, “Eat.” We ate until we were full. Then he lifted his hand and said, “O Umm Sulaym, where is this compared to your food when you presented it?” She said, “May my father and mother be ransomed for you! Had I not seen them eating, I would have said that nothing of our food had decreased.”
