(2). 3118. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ commented on: "Some of them We make more excellent than others to eat."[1] He said: "The Daqal, the Persian,[2] the sweet, the bitter." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb. Zaid bin Abī Unaisah reported it from Al-A'mash, similar to this. Saif bin Muḥammad (a narrator in the chain) is the brother of 'Ammār bin Muḥammad. 'Ammār is more reliable than he is, and he is the brother of the sister of Sufyān Ath-Thawri.

٣١١٨ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خِدَاشٍ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سَيْفُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّوْرِيُّ ، عَنِ ‌الْأَعْمَشِ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ : عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ «فِي قَوْلِهِ: {وَنُفَضِّلُ بَعْضَهَا عَلَى بَعْضٍ فِي الأُكُلِ} قَالَ: الدَّقَلُ وَالْفَارِسِيُّ وَالْحُلْوُ وَالْحَامِضُ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ، وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ زَيْدُ بْنُ أَبِي أُنَيْسَةَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ نَحْوَ هَذَا وَسَيْفُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ هُوَ أَخُو عَمَّارِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَمَّارٌ أَثْبَتُ مِنْهُ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ أُخْتِ سُفْيَانَ الثَّوْرِيِّ.

Commentary

The plots of land are close to each other, all are irrigated with the same water but the quantity of the produce is different; the taste is different too, some are full of taste and some are less tasty and some are bitter. These differences and distinctions bear witness that only One All-Knowing and All-Wise has the control of the whole universal system and He is the One Who is running the universe under His Supervision.
