6248. Narrated Abū Hāzim: Sahl said, "We used to feel happy on Friday." I asked Sahl, "Why?" He said, "There was an old woman of our acquaintance who used to send somebody to Budā'a (Ibn Maslama said, "Budā'a was a garden of date-palms at Al-Madina). She used to pull out the Silq (a kind of vegetable) from its roots and put it in a cooking pot, adding some powdered barley over it (and cook it). After finishing the Jumu'ah (Friday) Salāt (prayer) we used to (pass by her and) greet her, whereupon she would present us with that meal; we used to feel happy because of that. We used to have neither a midday nap, nor meals, except after the Friday (Salāt.)" [See Vol. 2, Hadīth No. 938]

6248 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ سَهْلٍ، قَالَ: «كُنَّا نَفْرَحُ يَوْمَ الجُمُعَةِ» قُلْتُ: وَلِمَ؟ قَالَ: " كَانَتْ لَنَا عَجُوزٌ، تُرْسِلُ إِلَى بُضَاعَةَ - قَالَ ابْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ: نَخْلٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ - فَتَأْخُذُ مِنْ أُصُولِ السِّلْقِ، فَتَطْرَحُهُ فِي قِدْرٍ، وَتُكَرْكِرُ حَبَّاتٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ، فَإِذَا صَلَّيْنَا الجُمُعَةَ انْصَرَفْنَا، وَنُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهَا فَتُقَدِّمُهُ إِلَيْنَا، فَنَفْرَحُ مِنْ أَجْلِهِ، وَمَا كُنَّا نَقِيلُ وَلاَ نَتَغَدَّى إِلَّا بَعْدَ الجُمُعَةِ "
