English translation

3764. Wahshī bin Harb narrated from his father, from his grandfather that the Companions of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "O Messenger of Allāh, we eat and do not get staidated." He said: "Perhaps you are eating separately?" They said: "Yes." He said: "Come together to eat, and then say the Name of Allāh over your food, and it will be blessed for you." (Da'if) Abū Dāwūd said: If you are at a feast and the food is served, do not eat until the owner of the house gives you permission.

Arabic text

3764 - حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى الرَّازِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي وَحْشِيُّ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ، صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا نَأْكُلُ وَلَا نَشْبَعُ، قَالَ: «فَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَفْتَرِقُونَ؟» قَالُوا: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «فَاجْتَمِعُوا عَلَى طَعَامِكُمْ، وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ يُبَارَكْ لَكُمْ فِيهِ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «إِذَا كُنْتَ فِي وَلِيمَةٍ فَوُضِعَ الْعَشَاءُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ لَكَ صَاحِبُ الدَّارِ»
