6688. Narrated Anas bin Mālik رضي الله عنه, Abū Ṭalḥa said to Umm Sulaim, "I heard the voice of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ rather weak, and I knew that it was because of hunger. Have you anything (to present to the Prophet ﷺ)?" She said, "Yes." Then she took out a few loaves of barley bread and took a veil of her and wrapped the bread with a part of it and sent me to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. I went and found Allāh's Messenger ﷺ sitting in the mosque with some people. I stood up before him. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said to me, "Has
Abū Ṭalḥa sent you?" I said, "Yes." Then Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said to those who were with him, "Get up and proceed." I went ahead of them (as their forerunner) and came to Abū Ṭalḥa and informed him about it. Abū Ṭalḥa said, "O Umm Sulaim! Allāh's Messenger ﷺ has come (with his Companions) and we have no food to feed them." Umm Sulaim said, "Allāh and His Messenger know better." So Abū Ṭalḥa went out (to receive them) till he met Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came in company with Abū Ṭalḥa and they entered the house. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "O Umm Sulaim! Bring whatever you have." So she brought that (barley) bread and Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered that bread to be broken into small pieces, and then Umm Sulaim poured over it some butter from a leather butter container, and then Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said what Allāh wanted him to say, (i.e., invoked Allāh to bless that food). Allāh's Messenger ﷺ then said, "Admit ten men." Abū Ṭalḥa admitted them and they ate to their fill and went out. He (ﷺ) again said, "Admit ten men." He admitted them, and in this way all the people ate to their fill, and they were seventy or eighty men."

6688 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: قَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ لِأُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ لَقَدْ: سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَعِيفًا، أَعْرِفُ فِيهِ الجُوعَ، فَهَلْ عِنْدَكِ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ فَقَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، فَأَخْرَجَتْ أَقْرَاصًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَتْ خِمَارًا لَهَا، فَلَفَّتِ الخُبْزَ بِبَعْضِهِ، ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَتْنِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَذَهَبْتُ فَوَجَدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي المَسْجِدِ وَمَعَهُ النَّاسُ، فَقُمْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَرْسَلَكَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ» فَقُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِمَنْ مَعَهُ: «قُومُوا» فَانْطَلَقُوا وَانْطَلَقْتُ بَيْنَ أَيْدِيهِمْ، حَتَّى جِئْتُ أَبَا طَلْحَةَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ، فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ: يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ، قَدْ جَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَالنَّاسُ، وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَنَا مِنَ الطَّعَامِ مَا نُطْعِمُهُمْ، فَقَالَتْ: اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، فَانْطَلَقَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ حَتَّى لَقِيَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَبُو طَلْحَةَ حَتَّى دَخَلاَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَلُمِّي يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ مَا عِنْدَكِ» فَأَتَتْ بِذَلِكَ الخُبْزِ، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ الخُبْزِ فَفُتَّ، وَعَصَرَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ عُكَّةً لَهَا فَأَدَمَتْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ فِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ أَنْ يَقُولَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ائْذَنْ لِعَشَرَةٍ» فَأَذِنَ لَهُمْ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ائْذَنْ لِعَشَرَةٍ» فَأَذِنَ لَهُمْ، فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «ائْذَنْ لِعَشَرَةٍ» فَأَكَلَ القَوْمُ كُلُّهُمْ وَشَبِعُوا، وَالقَوْمُ سَبْعُونَ أَوْ ثَمَانُونَ رَجُلًا
