[Machine] "The worst food is the food of a feast that is invited for the rich and ignored for the poor. It is a right for those who abandon it; indeed, they have disobeyed Allah and His messenger. And it was Ma'mar who said: 'Whoever does not answer, has indeed disobeyed Allah and His messenger.'"  

البيهقي:١٤٥٢٣ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بِشْرَانَ الْعَدْلُ أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أنبأ مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَعَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ قَالَ

شَرُّ الطَّعَامِ طَعَامُ الْوَلِيمَةِ يُدْعَى الْغَنِيُّ وَيُتْرَكُ الْمِسْكِينُ وَهِيَ حَقٌّ مَنْ تَرَكَهَا فَقَدْ عَصَى اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ وَكَانَ مَعْمَرٌ رُبَّمَا قَالَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبْ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ  

رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ وَغَيْرُهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ وَكَذَلِكَ رَوَاهُ أَبُو الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ مَوْقُوفًا عَلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ

malik:28-54 – Mālik > Ibn Shihāb > al-Aʿraj > Abū Hurayrah

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibr. Shihab from al-Araj that Abu Hurayra said, "The worst food is the food of a wedding feast to which the rich are invited and the poor are left out. If anyone rejects an invitation, he has rebelled against Allah and His Messenger."  

مالك:٢٨-٥٤ – وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ شَرُّ الطَّعَامِ طَعَامُ الْوَلِيمَةِ يُدْعَى لَهَا الأَغْنِيَاءُ وَيُتْرَكُ الْمَسَاكِينُ وَمَنْ لَمْ يَأْتِ الدَّعْوَةَ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ

[Machine] "The worst kind of food is the food served at a banquet, which is only offered to the rich and not to the poor, and this is unjust. Whoever neglects it has indeed disobeyed [God] and is considered arrogant. Perhaps he said: 'Whoever does not respond to the invitation has indeed disobeyed Allah and His Messenger.'  

أحمد:٧٦٢٤ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَالْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ

شَرُّ الطَّعَامِ طَعَامُ الْوَلِيمَةِ يُدْعَى الْغَنِيُّ وَيُتْرَكُ الْمِسْكِينُ وَهِيَ حَقٌّ وَمَنْ تَرَكَهَا فَقَدْ عَصَى وَكَانَ مَعْمَرٌ رُبَّمَا قَالَ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُجِبِ الدَّعْوَةَ فَقَدْ عَصَى اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ
