Did you squeeze it? She said: Yes. Thereupon he said: If you had left it in that very state, it would have kept on provid- ing you (the clarified butter) on end.  

أَنَّ أُمَّ مَالِكٍ كَانَتْ تُهْدِي لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي عُكَّةٍ لَهَا سَمْنًا فَيَأْتِيهَا بَنُوهَا فَيَسْأَلُونَ الأُدْمَ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهُمْ شَىْءٌ فَتَعْمِدُ إِلَى الَّذِي كَانَتْ تُهْدِي فِيهِ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَتَجِدُ فِيهِ سَمْنًا فَمَا زَالَ يُقِيمُ لَهَا أُدْمَ بَيْتِهَا حَتَّى عَصَرَتْهُ فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ عَصَرْتِيهَا قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ لَوْ تَرَكْتِيهَا مَا زَالَ قَائِمًا  

[Machine] Um Malik Al-Bahziyyah used to send clarified butter to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as a gift. One day, her sons asked her for clarified butter, but she did not have any. So she looked in the container that she used to send to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and found some clarified butter in it. She kept a portion of it for herself until the evening and then brought it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He asked her, "Did you squeeze it?" She replied, "Yes." He said, "If you had left it, it would have remained as a permanent provision for you."  

أَنَّ أُمَّ مَالِكٍ الْبَهْزِيَّةَ كَانَتْ تُهْدِي فِي عُكَّةٍ لَهَا سَمْنًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَبَيْنَا بَنُوهَا يَسْأَلُونَهَا الْإِدَامَ وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهَا شَيْءٌ فَعَمَدَتْ إِلَى عُكَّتِهَا الَّتِي كَانَتْ تُهْدِي فِيهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَوَجَدَتْ فِيهَا سَمْنًا فَمَا زَالَ يَدُومُ لَهَا أُدْمُ بَنِيهَا حَتَّى عَصَرَتْهُ وَأَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أَعَصَرْتِيهِ؟ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ قَالَ لَوْ تَرَكْتِيهِ مَا زَالَ ذَلِكَ لَكِ مُقِيمًا
