ahmad:6720Abū Bakr al-Ḥanafī > Usāmah b. Zayd > ʿAmr b.ishuʿayb from his father from his grandfather

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sleeping and he found a date underneath him, so he took it and ate it. Then, he began to perform ablution at the end of the night, which startled some of his wives. He said, "I found a date underneath me, so I ate it, fearing that it might be from the charity dates."  

أحمد:٦٧٢٠حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِشُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ نَائِمًا فَوَجَدَ تَمْرَةً تَحْتَ جَنْبِهِ فَأَخَذَهَا فَأَكَلَهَا ثُمَّ جَعَلَ يَتَضَوَّرُ مِنْ آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ وَفَزِعَ لِذَلِكَ بَعْضُ أَزْوَاجِهِ فَقَالَ إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ تَمْرَةً تَحْتَ جَنْبِي فَأَكَلْتُهَا فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ found a date by his side during the night, so he ate it and couldn't sleep that night. Some of his wives said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, did you have trouble sleeping last night?" He replied, "I found a date by my side and I ate it, and we had some dates from the charity, so I feared that it might be from them."  

أحمد:٦٨٢٠حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَجَدَ تَحْتَ جَنْبِهِ تَمْرَةً مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَأَكَلَهَا فَلَمْ يَنَمْ تِلْكَ اللَّيْلَةَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ نِسَائِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرِقْتَ الْبَارِحَةَ؟ قَالَ إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ تَحْتَ جَنْبِي تَمْرَةً فَأَكَلْتُهَا وَكَانَ عِنْدَنَا تَمْرٌ مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِنْهُ
