Arabic text

3298 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي حُسَيْنٍ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَتْ: أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: بِطَعَامٍ، فَعَرَضَ عَلَيْنَا، فَقُلْنَا لَا نَشْتَهِيهِ، فَقَالَ: «لَا تَجْمَعْنَ جُوعًا، وَكَذِبًا»

Commentary

Offering food to those present, while eating, is a good habit. At the time of hunger, if food is offered, then it should be accepted without aversion.
