١٠۔٤٢ باب إِذَا حَضَرَ الطَّعَامُ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ

[Machine] And Ibn Umar used to start with dinner. Abu Darda said, "The understanding of a person's knowledge is his keenness towards fulfilling his needs, to the point where he fulfills his prayer while his heart is empty."

وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَبْدَأُ بِالْعَشَاءِ. وَقَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ مِنْ فِقْهِ الْمَرْءِ إِقْبَالُهُ عَلَى حَاجَتِهِ حَتَّى يُقْبِلَ عَلَى صَلاَتِهِ وَقَلْبُهُ فَارِغٌ.

The Prophet ﷺ said, "If supper is served, and Iqama is pronounced one should start with the supper."  

البخاري:٦٧١ – حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنْ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِذَا وُضِعَ الْعَشَاءُ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ  

bukhari:672 – Yaḥyá b. Bukayr > al-Layth > ʿUqayl > Ibn Shihāb > Anas b. Mālik

Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If the supper is served start having it before praying the Maghrib prayer and do not be hasty in finishing it."  

البخاري:٦٧٢ – حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا قُدِّمَ الْعَشَاءُ فَابْدَءُوا بِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُصَلُّوا صَلاَةَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَلاَ تَعْجَلُوا عَنْ عَشَائِكُمْ  

bukhari:673 – ʿUbayd b. Ismāʿīl > Abū Usāmah > ʿUbaydullāh > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'If the supper is served for anyone of you and the Iqāmah is pronounced, start with the supper and don't be in haste (and carry on eating) till you finish it."

If food was served for Ibn ʿUmar and Iqama was pronounced, he never came to the prayer till he finished it (i.e. food) in spite of the fact that he heard the recitation (of the Qur'an) by the Imam (in the prayer).  

البخاري:٦٧٣ – حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ: «إِذَا وُضِعَ عَشَاءُ أَحَدِكُمْ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ وَلاَ يَعْجَلْ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْهُ۔»

وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يُوضَعُ لَهُ الطَّعَامُ وَتُقَامُ الصَّلاَةُ فَلاَ يَأْتِيهَا حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ وَإِنَّهُ لَيَسْمَعُ قِرَاءَةَ الإِمَامِ  

bukhari:674 – Zuhayr And Wahb b. ʿUthmān > Mūsá b. ʿUqbah > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

The Prophet ﷺ said, "If anyone of you is having his meals, he should not hurry up till he is; satisfied even if the prayer has been started."  

البخاري:٦٧٤ – وَقَالَ زُهَيْرٌ وَوَهْبُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى الطَّعَامِ فَلاَ يَعْجَلْ حَتَّى يَقْضِيَ حَاجَتَهُ مِنْهُ وَإِنْ أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ رَوَاهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ وَوَهْبٌ مَدِينِيٌّ
