English translation

2981. Narrated Suwaid bin An-Nu'mān that he went out in the company of the Prophet ﷺ during the year of Khaibar (campaign) till they reached a place called Aṣ-Ṣahbā', which is in the lower part of Khaibar. They offered the 'Aṣr prayer (there) and the Prophet ﷺ asked for the food. Nothing but Sawīq(1) was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. So, they chewed it and ate it and drank water. After that the Prophet ﷺ got up, washed his mouth, and they too washed their mouths and then offered the Ṣalāt (prayer).

Arabic text

2981 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ المُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الوَهَّابِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي بُشَيْرُ بْنُ يَسَارٍ، أَنَّ سُوَيْدَ بْنَ النُّعْمَانِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ، أَخْبَرَهُ: «أَنَّهُ خَرَجَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَامَ خَيْبَرَ، حَتَّى إِذَا كَانُوا بِالصَّهْبَاءِ وَهِيَ مِنْ خَيْبَرَ، وَهِيَ أَدْنَى خَيْبَرَ، فَصَلَّوُا الْعَصْرَ فَدَعَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالأَطْعِمَةِ، فَلَمْ يُؤْتَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا بِسَوِيقٍ، فَلُكْنَا، فَأَكَلْنَا وَشَرِبْنَا، ثُمَّ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَمَضْمَضَ، وَمَضْمَضْنَا وَصَلَّيْنَا»
