Arabic text

3344 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا زَائِدَةُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: «مَا شَبِعَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُنْذُ قَدِمُوا الْمَدِينَةَ، ثَلَاثَ لَيَالٍ تِبَاعًا، مِنْ خُبْزِ بُرٍّ، حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»

Commentary

The poverty of the Prophet ﷺ was adopted deliberately, i.e., the Prophet ﷺ, used to prefer the needs of other people and he himself used to be content with the least of the things. Sometimes wheat bread was also used in the house of the Prophet ﷺ but mostly dates, water or milk was used. At that time wheat was expensive so they used barley instead.
