[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Jacob, the prophet, had a brother who was like a brother to me in Allah's sight. One day, he asked Jacob, 'What caused your vision to become weak and your back to arch?' Jacob said, 'As for the reason for my vision becoming weak, it is because of crying over Joseph, and as for the reason for my back arching, it is because of grieving over my son Benjamin.' Gabriel then came to him and said, 'Jacob, Allah sends His peace upon you and says, "Are you not ashamed to complain about Me to someone other than Me?"' Jacob said, 'I complain only to Allah about my anguish and sadness.' Gabriel said, 'I know what you complain about, Jacob.' Jacob said, 'My Lord, won't you have mercy on the elderly, as You have caused my vision to become weak and my back to arch? So send my fragrance back to me, so I may breathe it in before I die, and then do with me as You wish.' Then Gabriel came to him and said, 'Allah sends His peace upon you and tells you to be glad and to let your heart rejoice. By my honor, if both of them (Joseph and Benjamin) were dead, I would surely have revived them. So make food for the poor, for My beloved among my servants are the prophets and the poor. Do you not know why your vision became weak and your back arched, and why the brothers of Joseph did what they did? You had slaughtered a sheep while a poor orphan who was fasting was brought to you, and you did not feed him anything from it.' Jacob then, after that, whenever he wanted to have lunch, he would call out for someone to announce, 'Whoever wants lunch from the poor, let them eat with Jacob.' And when he would be fasting, he would call out for someone to announce, 'Whoever is fasting among the poor, let them break their fast with Jacob.'"
