3767. Abū Hurairah said: "We used to call Ja'far bin Abī Tālib the Father of the Poor, so when we used to come to him, he would draw us close to him as long as he was present. One day we came to him, and he did not find anything with him, so he brought out a jar of honey and broke it, so we began to lick out of it." (Da'if) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharib as a narration of Abū Salamah from Abū Hurairah.

٣٧٦٧ - – حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَاتِمُ بْنُ سَيَّارٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ، (١) قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ ‌يَزِيدَ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: «كُنَّا نَدْعُو جَعْفَرَ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ» رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَبَا الْمَسَاكِينَ، فَكُنَّا إِذَا أَتَيْنَاهُ قَرَّبْنَا إِلَيْهِ مَا حَضَرَ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ يَجِدْ عِنْدَهُ شَيْئًا، فَأَخْرَجَ جَرَّةً مِنْ عَسَلٍ فَكَسَرَهَا فَجَعَلْنَا نَلْعَقُ مِنَهَا. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ (٢).

Commentary

Ja'far would never let go any poor without eating food from his house. If he had nothing to offer he would give him the containers of honey and oil; at least there would be something left in them.
