2352. Narrated Az-Zuhri: Anas bin Mālik said that once a domestic sheep was milked for Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ while he was in the house of Anas bin Mālik. The milk was mixed with water drawn from the well in Anas’ house. A tumbler of it was presented to Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ who drank from it. Then Abū Bakr was sitting on his left side and a bedouin on his right side. When the Prophet ﷺ removed the tumbler from his mouth, ‘Umar was afraid that the Prophet ﷺ might give it to the bedouin, so he said, “O Allāh’s Messenger! Give it to Abū Bakr who is sitting by your side.” But the Prophet ﷺ gave it to the bedouin, who was to his right and said, “You should start with the one on your right side.”
