3768. It was narrated from Jābir bin Ṣubḥ, he said: "Al-Muthanna bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān Al-Khuzā'ī narrated to us, from his paternal uncle, Umayyah bin Makhshī, who was one of the Companions of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, who said: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was sitting and a man was eating, and he did not mention the Name of Allāh until there was only one morsel of his food left. When he raised it to his mouth he said, "In the Name of Allāh at the beginning and at the end." The Prophet ﷺ smiled, then he said: "The Shaitān was eating with him, but when he mentioned the Name of Allāh, he vomited what was in his belly."(Hasan) Abū Dāwūd said: Jābir bin Ṣubḥ is the grandfather of Sulaimān bin Ḥarb, from his mother's side.

3768 - حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْحَرَّانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ يُونُسَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرُ بْنُ صُبْحٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُثَنَّى بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْخُزَاعِيُّ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ مَخْشِيٍّ - وَكَانَ مَنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسًا وَرَجُلٌ يَأْكُلُ فَلَمْ يُسَمِّ حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْ طَعَامِهِ إِلَّا لُقْمَةٌ فَلَمَّا رَفَعَهَا إِلَى فِيهِ قَالَ: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ أَوَّلَهُ وَآخِرَهُ، فَضَحِكَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «مَا زَالَ الشَّيْطَانُ يَأْكُلُ مَعَهُ، فَلَمَّا ذَكَرَ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ اسْتَقَاءَ مَا فِي بَطْنِهِ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «جَابِرُ بْنُ صُبْحٍ جَدُّ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ حَرْبٍ مِنْ قِبَلِ أُمِّهِ»
