3726. It was narrated from Anas bin Mālik that some milk mixed with water was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. On his right was a Bedouin, and on his left was Abū Bakr. He drank some, then he gave it to the Bedouin saying, "To the right, then to the right." (Sahih)
3726 - حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِلَبَنٍ قَدْ شِيبَ بِمَاءٍ وَعَنْ يَمِينِهِ أَعْرَابِيٌّ، وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَشَرِبَ، ثُمَّ أَعْطَى الْأَعْرَابِيَّ وَقَالَ: «الْأَيْمَنَ فَالْأَيْمَنَ»
