Arabic text

3333 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بِشْرٍ بَكْرُ بْنُ خَلَفٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قُتَيْبَةَ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أُتِيَ بِتَمْرٍ عَتِيقٍ، فَجَعَلَ يُفَتِّشُهُ»

Commentary

a. A gift should be accepted even if it seems insignificant. b. Insignificant food is also a blessing of Allāh, so it should be respected. c. If a bad thing could be used after fixing it, then consuming it is better than destroying it.
