[Machine] I heard Abu Uthman Al-Nahdi saying, "I hosted Abu Hurayrah seven dates. He said, 'The Prophet ﷺ divided dates among his companions and I received seven dates, one of which had a pit. Nothing impressed me more than its sweetness.'"  

أحمد:٩٣٧٣ – حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ الْجُرَيْرِيُّ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيَّ يَقُولُتَضَيَّفْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ سَبْعًا قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ قَسَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِهِ تَمْرًا فَأَصَابَنِي سَبْعُ تَمَرَاتٍ إِحْدَاهُنَّ حَشَفَةٌ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ شَيْءٌ أَعْجَبَ إِلَيَّ مِنْهَا شَدَّتْ مَضَاغِي

bukhari:5411 – Abū al-Nuʿmān > Ḥammād b. Zayd > ʿAbbās al-Jurayrī > Abū ʿUthmān al-Nahdī > Abū Hurayrah

Once the Prophet ﷺ distributed dates among his companions and gave each one seven dates. He gave me seven dates too, one of which was dry and hard, but none of the other dates was more liked by me than that one, for it prolonged my chewing it.  

البخاري:٥٤١١ – حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبَّاسٍ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

قَسَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمًا بَيْنَ أَصْحَابِهِ تَمْرًا فَأَعْطَى كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ سَبْعَ تَمَرَاتٍ فَأَعْطَانِي سَبْعَ تَمَرَاتٍ إِحْدَاهُنَّ حَشَفَةٌ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِيهِنَّ تَمْرَةٌ أَعْجَبَ إِلَىَّ مِنْهَا شَدَّتْ فِي مَضَاغِي
