15. Jihād
١٥۔ كتاب الجهاد
I was a boy. I used to throw stones at the palm-trees of the Ansar. So I was brought to the Prophet ﷺ who said: O boy, why do you throw stones at the palm-trees? I said: eat (dates). He said: Do not throw stones at the palm trees, but eat what falls beneath them. He then wiped his head and said: O Allah, fill his belly.
كُنْتُ غُلاَمًا أَرْمِي نَخْلَ الأَنْصَارِ فَأُتِيَ بِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا غُلاَمُ لِمَ تَرْمِي النَّخْلَ قَالَ آكُلُ قَالَ فَلاَ تَرْمِ النَّخْلَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَسْقُطُ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَشْبِعْ بَطْنَهُ
