[5296] 131 - (2032) It was narrated from Ibn Ka'b bin Mâlik, that his father said: "I saw the Prophet ﷺ licking his three fingers after eating." Ibn Hâtim did not mention (the word) three. Ibn Abî Shaibah said in his report: "from 'Abdur-Raḥmân bin Ka'b, from his father."

131 - (2032) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، قَالُوا: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ ابْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: «رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْعَقُ أَصَابِعَهُ الثَّلَاثَ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ»، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرِ ابْنُ حَاتِمٍ الثَّلَاثَ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ: عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ
