Arabic text

3275 - حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ كَثِيرِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عِرْقٍ الْيَحْصَبِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بُسْرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أُتِيَ بِقَصْعَةٍ، فَقَالَ: رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كُلُوا مِنْ جَوَانِبِهَا، وَدَعُوا ذُرْوَتَهَا، يُبَارَكْ فِيهَا»

Commentary

a. Top here means the middle part of the food which is in the platter and becomes higher than the food at the edges. b. The ruling of the Hadith could be applied if everyone eats from his side when he shares the plate with others, because the food which is in the middle is eaten after finishing the food which is at the edges. c. Following a Hadith brings blessings in livelihood.
