[5379] 186 - (2063) It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ hosted a guest who was a disbeliever. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ ordered that a sheep be milked for him and he drank it, then another, and he drank it, then another, and he drank it, until he had drunk the milk of seven sheep. Then the next morning he became Muslim, and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ ordered that a sheep be milked for him and he drank it, then he ordered that another be milked but he did not finish it. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "The believer eats in one intestine and the disbeliever eats in seven intestines."

Arabic text

186 - (2063) وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ سُهَيْلِ بْنِ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَافَهُ ضَيْفٌ وَهُوَ كَافِرٌ، فَأَمَرَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَاةٍ فَحُلِبَتْ، فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا، ثُمَّ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبَهُ، ثُمَّ أُخْرَى فَشَرِبَهُ، حَتَّى شَرِبَ حِلَابَ سَبْعِ شِيَاهٍ، ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ أَصْبَحَ فَأَسْلَمَ، فَأَمَرَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَاةٍ، فَشَرِبَ حِلَابَهَا، ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِأُخْرَى، فَلَمْ يَسْتَتِمَّهَا، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُؤْمِنُ يَشْرَبُ فِي مِعًى وَاحِدٍ، وَالْكَافِرُ يَشْرَبُ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَمْعَاءٍ»
