Al-Hasan reported that an orphan used to eat with Ibn 'Umar. One day he called for food and looked for this orphan but could not find him. He arrived after Ibn 'Umar had finished. Ibn 'Umar called for more food to be brought to him but they did not have any. So he was brought sawiq and honey. He said, "Here, have this! By Allah, you have not been cheated!" Al-Hasan said, "By Allah, Ibn 'Umar was not cheated!"
أَنَّ يَتِيمًا كَانَ يَحْضُرُ طَعَامَ ابْنِ عُمَرَ فَدَعَا بِطَعَامٍ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَطَلَبَ يَتِيمَهُ فَلَمْ يَجِدْهُ فَجَاءَ بَعْدَ مَا فَرَغَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَدَعَا لَهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ بِطَعَامٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُمْ فَجَاءَه بِسَوِيقٍ وَعَسَلٍ فَقَالَ دُونَكَ هَذَا فَوَاللَّهِ مَا غُبِنْتَ يَقُولُ الْحَسَنُ وَابْنُ عُمَرَ وَاللَّهِ مَا غُبِنَ
