Abu Talhah: ''Have you got any food?''


Imam Bukhari related on the authority of Anas Ibn Malik who said Abu Talhah said to Umm Sulaym: ? I have noticed feebleness in the voice of Allah?s Messenger (pbuh) which I think, is caused by hunger. Have you got any food?? She said: ?Yes.? She brought out some loaves of barley and took out a veil belonging to her, and wrapped the bread in part of it and put it under my arm and wrapped part of the veil round me and sent me to Allah?s Messenger. I carried it and found Allah?s Messenger in the Mosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allah?s Messenger asked..

?Has Abu Talhah sent you?? I said: ?Yes?. He asked: ?With some food?? I said: ?Yes?. The Prophet (pbuh) then said to the men around him: ?Get up!? He set out (accompanied by them) and I went ahead of them till I reached Abu Talhah and told him (of the Prophet?s visit). Abu Talhah said: ?O Umm Sulaym! Allah?s Messenger is coming with the people and we have no food to feed them? She said: ?Allah and his Messenger know better.? So Abu Talhah went out to receive Allah?s Messenger .

Allah?s Messenger came along with Abu Talhah and said: ?O Umm Sulaym! Bring whatever you have.? She brought the bread, which Allah?s Messenger ordered to be broken into pieces. Umm Sulaym poured on them some butter from an oilskin. Then Allah?s Messenger recited what Allah wished him to recite, and then said: ?Let ten persons come (to share the meal).? Ten persons were admitted, and when they were full, they went out. The he again said: ?Let another ten do the same.? They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said: ?Let another ten persons (do the same).? In short, all of them ate their fill, and they were seventy or eighty men.? Narrated by Al Bukhari, book of: ?The merits of the Prophet (pbuh)?.

mashallah. sharing is good, but what's amazing is that they only had one loaf of bread and by allah's grace 70 or 80 men had eaten from that one loaf of bread until they were full! mashallah. jazakallah.
