banquet. He ordered that leather dining sheets be spread. Then dates, dried yoghurt and butter were
put on those sheets. Anas added: The Prophet (ﷺ) consummated his marriage with Safiyya (during a
journey) whereupon Hais (sweet dish) was served on a leather dining sheet.

found with her a roasted mastigure which her sister Hufaida bint Al-Harith had brought from Najd.
Maimuna presented the mastigure before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) who rarely started eating any (unfamiliar)
food before it was described and named for him. (But that time) Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stretched his hand
towards the (meat of the) mastigure whereupon a lady from among those who were present, said,
"You should inform Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) of what you have presented to him. O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! It is the
meat of a mastigure." (On learning that) Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) withdrew his hand from the meat of the
mastigure. Khalid bin Al-Walid said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Is this unlawful to eat?" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
replied, "No, but it is not found in the land of my people, so I do not like it." Khalid said, "Then I
pulled the mastigure (meat) towards me and ate it while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was looking at me.
Ibn `Umar never used to take his meal unless a poor man was called to eat with him. One day I
brought a poor man to eat with him, the man ate too much, whereupon Ibn `Umar said, "O Nafi`!
Don't let this man enter my house, for I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "A believer eats in one intestine (is
satisfied with a little food), and a kafir (unbeliever) eats in seven intestines (eats much food).

the Prophet (ﷺ) who then said, "A believer eats in one intestine (is satisfied with a little food) and a Kafir
eats in seven intestines (eats much). "

who attended the Badr battle and was from the Ansar, that he came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's
Apostle! I have lost my eyesight and I lead my people in the prayer (as an Imam). When it rains, the
valley which is between me and my people, flows with water, and then I cannot go to their mosque to
lead them in the prayer. O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I wish that you could come and pray in my house so that I
may take it as a praying place. The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah willing, I will do that." The next morning,
soon after the sun had risen, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came with Abu Bakr. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked for the
permission to enter and I admitted him. The Prophet (ﷺ) had not sat till he had entered the house and said
to me, "Where do you like me to pray in your house?" I pointed at a place in my house whereupon he
stood and said, "Allahu Akbar." We lined behind him and he prayed two rak`at and finished it with
Taslim. We then requested him to stay for a special meal of Khazira which we had prepared. A large
number of men from the adjoining area gathered in the house. One of them said, "Where is Malik bin
Ad-Dukhshun?" Another man said, "He is a hypocrite and does not love Allah and His Apostle." The
Prophet said, "Do not say so. Do you not think that he has said: "None has the right to be worshipped
but Allah," seeking Allah's pleasure? The man said, "Allah and His Apostle know better, but we have
always seen him mixing with hypocrites and giving them advice." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah has
forbidden the (Hell) Fire for those who testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah,
seeking Allah's pleasure. "

We used to be happy on Fridays, for there was an old lady who used to pull out the roots of Silq and
put it in a cooking pot with some barley. When we had finished the prayer, we would visit her and she

used to take our meals or have a mid-day nap except after the Friday prayer. By Allah, that meal
contained no fat.
