bukhari:5385Muḥammad b. Sinān > Hammām > Qatādah

We were in the company of Anas whose baker was with him. Anas said, The Prophet ﷺ did not eat thin bread, or a roasted sheep till he met Allah (died).  

البخاري:٥٣٨٥حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ

كُنَّا عِنْدَ أَنَسٍ وَعِنْدَهُ خَبَّازٌ لَهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَكَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خُبْزًا مُرَقَّقًا وَلاَ شَاةً مَسْمُوطَةً حَتَّى لَقِيَ اللَّهَ  

bukhari:5386ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh > Muʿādh b. Hishām from my father > Yūnus > ʿAlī > al-Iskāf > Qatādah > Anas

To the best of my knowledge, the Prophet ﷺ did not take his meals in a big tray at all, nor did he ever eat well-baked thin bread, nor did he ever eat at a dining table.  

البخاري:٥٣٨٦حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ يُونُسَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ هُوَ الإِسْكَافُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ ؓ قَالَ

مَا عَلِمْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَكَلَ عَلَى سُكُرُّجَةٍ قَطُّ وَلاَ خُبِزَ لَهُ مُرَقَّقٌ قَطُّ وَلاَ أَكَلَ عَلَى خِوَانٍ قِيلَ لِقَتَادَةَ فَعَلَى مَا كَانُوا يَأْكُلُونَ قَالَ عَلَى السُّفَرِ  

bukhari:5387Ibn Abū Maryam > Muḥammad b. Jaʿfar > Ḥumayd > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ halted to consummate his marriage with Safiyya. I invited the Muslims to his wedding banquet. He ordered that leather dining sheets be spread. Then dates, dried yoghurt and butter were put on those sheets. Anas added: The Prophet ﷺ consummated his marriage with Safiyya (during a journey) whereupon Hais (sweet dish) was served on a leather dining sheet.  

البخاري:٥٣٨٧حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخْبَرَنِي حُمَيْدٌ

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَنَسًا يَقُولُ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَبْنِي بِصَفِيَّةَ فَدَعَوْتُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلَى وَلِيمَتِهِ أَمَرَ بِالأَنْطَاعِ فَبُسِطَتْ فَأُلْقِيَ عَلَيْهَا التَّمْرُ وَالأَقِطُ وَالسَّمْنُ وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو عَنْ أَنَسٍ بَنَى بِهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ صَنَعَ حَيْسًا فِي نِطَعٍ  

bukhari:5388Muḥammad > Abū Muʿāwiyah > Hishām from his father > Wahbb. Kaysān

The People of Sham taunted ʿAbdullah bin Az-Zubair by calling him "The son of Dhatin-Nataqain" (the woman who has two waist-belts). (His mother) (Asma, said to him, "O my son! They taunt you with "Nataqain". Do you know what the Nataqain were? That was my waist-belt which I divided in two parts. I tied the water skin of Messenger of Allah ﷺ with one part, and with the other part I tied his food container."  

البخاري:٥٣٨٨حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ أَبِيهِ وَعَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ قَالَ كَانَ أَهْلُ الشَّأْمِ يُعَيِّرُونَ ابْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ يَقُولُونَ يَا ابْنَ ذَاتِ النِّطَاقَيْنِ فَقَالَتْ

لَهُ أَسْمَاءُ يَا بُنَىَّ إِنَّهُمْ يُعَيِّرُونَكَ بِالنِّطَاقَيْنِ هَلْ تَدْرِي مَا كَانَ النِّطَاقَانِ إِنَّمَا كَانَ نِطَاقِي شَقَقْتُهُ نِصْفَيْنِ فَأَوْكَيْتُ قِرْبَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِأَحَدِهِمَا وَجَعَلْتُ فِي سُفْرَتِهِ آخَرَ قَالَ فَكَانَ أَهْلُ الشَّأْمِ إِذَا عَيَّرُوهُ بِالنِّطَاقَيْنِ يَقُولُ إِيهًا وَالإِلَهْ تِلْكَ شَكَاةٌ ظَاهِرٌ عَنْكَ عَارُهَا  

bukhari:5389Abū al-Nuʿmān > Abū ʿAwānah > Abū Bishr > Saʿīd b. Jubayr > Ibn ʿAbbās > Um

that his aunt, Um Hufaid bint Al-Harith bin Hazn, presented to the Prophet ﷺ butter, dried yoghurt and mastigures. The Prophet ﷺ invited the people to those mastigures and they were eaten on his dining sheet, but the Prophet ﷺ did not eat of it, as if he disliked it. Nevertheless. if it was unlawful to eat that, the people would not have eaten it on the dining sheet of the Prophet ﷺ nor would he have ordered that they be eaten.  

البخاري:٥٣٨٩حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ أُمَّ

حُفَيْدٍ بِنْتَ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ حَزْن ٍ خَالَةَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَهْدَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ سَمْنًا وَأَقِطًا وَأَضُبًّا فَدَعَا بِهِنَّ فَأُكِلْنَ عَلَى مَائِدَتِهِ وَتَرَكَهُنَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ كَالْمُسْتَقْذِرِ لَهُنَّ وَلَوْ كُنَّ حَرَامًا مَا أُكِلْنَ عَلَى مَائِدَةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَلاَ أَمَرَ بِأَكْلِهِنَّ
