I heard Anas bin Malik saying, "A tailor invited Messenger of Allah ﷺ to a meal which he had prepared. " Anas bin Malik said, "I accompanied Messenger of Allah ﷺ to that meal. He served the Prophet ﷺ with bread and soup made with gourd and dried meat. I saw the Prophet ﷺ taking the pieces of gourd from the dish." Anas added, "Since that day I have continued to like gourd."
