“I came to the Prophet ﷺ and in front of him there were some bread and dates. The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Come and eat.’ So I started to eat some of the dates. Then the Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Are you eating dates when you have an inflammation in your eye?’ I said: ‘I am chewing from the other side.’ And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled.”  

قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ خُبْزٌ وَتَمْرٌ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ادْنُ فَكُلْ فَأَخَذْتُ آكُلُ مِنَ التَّمْرِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ تَأْكُلُ تَمْرًا وَبِكَ رَمَدٌ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي أَمْضُغُ مِنْ نَاحِيَةٍ أُخْرَى فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

[Machine] Indeed, Suhaib came to the Prophet ﷺ with dates and bread in front of him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "Approach and eat." Suhaib began to eat from the dates. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "You have a cataract in your eye." Suhaib said, "O Messenger of Allah, I am only eating from the other side." The Prophet ﷺ then smiled.  

إِنَّ صُهَيْبًا قَدِمَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ تَمْرٌ وَخُبْزٌ فَقَالَ ادْنُ فَكُلْ قَالَ فَأَخَذَ يَأْكُلُ مِنَ التَّمْرِ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ بِعَيْنِكَ رَمَدًا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا آكُلُ مِنَ النَّاحِيَةِ الْأُخْرَى قَالَ فَتَبَسَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ  

“I came to the Prophet ﷺ and in front of him there were some bread and dates. The Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Come and eat.’ So I started to eat some of the dates. Then the Prophet ﷺ said: ‘Are you eating dates when you have an inflammation in your eye?’ I said: ‘I am chewing from the other side.’ And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3443)   

قَدِمْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ تَمْرٌ وَخُبْزٌ فَقَالَ «ادْنُ فَكُلْ» فَأَخَذْتُ آكُلُ مِنَ التَّمْرِ فَقَالَ «تَأْكُلُ تَمْرًا وَبِكَ رَمَدٌ؟» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أَمْضُغُ مِنَ النَّاحِيَةِ الْأُخْرَى فَتَبَسَّمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ  

[Machine] "I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and in front of him there were dates and bread. He said, 'Come closer and eat.' So, I took some dates to eat, and he said, 'Are you eating dates while having a mouth sore?' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, should I suck it from the other side?' So, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled."  

قَدِمْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ تَمْرٌ وَخُبْزٌ فَقَالَ «ادْنُ فَكُلْ» فَأَخَذْتُ آكُلُ مِنَ التَّمْرِ فَقَالَ «أَتَأْكُلُ تَمْرًا وَبِكَ رَمَدٌ؟» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَمُصُّهُ مِنَ النَّاحِيَةِ الْأُخْرَى فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ  

"عَنْ صُهيْب قَالَ: قَدمْتُ عَلَى النَّبىِّ ﷺ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْه تَمْرٌ وَخُبْزٌ، فَقَالَ: ادْنُ فَكُلْ، فَأخَذْتُ تَمْرًا فَأكَلْتهُ، فَقالَ: تأكُلُ تَمْرًا وَبكَ رَمَدٌ؟ قُلتُ: يَا رَسُولَ الله إِنَّما أمْضُغُ بنَاحيةٍ أخْرَى، فَتَبَسَّمَ النَّبِىُّ ﷺ ".
