ahmad:7963Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar > Shuʿbah > Dāwud b. Farāhīj > Abū Hurayrah

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ abandoned his wives. Shu'bah said, and I think he said: He left them for a month. Then Umar bin Al-Khattab came to him while he was in a room on a mat that had made imprints on his back. Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah, the Persians drink from gold and silver while you are like this." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Indeed, they have been hastened with their worldly pleasures, and the month for us is twenty-nine days, like this and like this," indicating with his fingers, and he broke his third finger.  

أحمد:٧٩٦٣حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ فَرَاهِيجَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

هَجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ نِسَاءَهُ قَالَ شُعْبَةُ وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ شَهْرًا فَأَتَاهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ وَهُوَ فِي غُرْفَةٍ عَلَى حَصِيرٍ قَدْ أَثَّرَ الْحَصِيرُ بِظَهْرِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كِسْرَى يَشْرَبُونَ فِي الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ وَأَنْتَ هَكَذَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّهُمْ عُجِّلَتْ لَهُمْ طَيِّبَاتُهُمْ فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ثُمَّ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الشَّهْرُ تِسْع وَعِشْرُونَ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَكَسَرَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ الْإِبْهَامَ
