ذِكْرُ مَا بَارَكَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا فِي الشَّيْءِ الْيَسِيرِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ لِلْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ حَتَّى أَكَلَ مِنْهُ عَالَمٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ

ابن حبّان:٦٥٢٩أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ مُجَاشِعٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ الشِّخِّيرِ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِقَصْعَةٍ مِنْ ثَرِيدٍ فَوُضِعَتْ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْقَوْمِ فَتَعَاقَبُوهَا إِلَى الظُّهْرِ مِنْ غُدْوَةٍ يَقُومُ قَوْمٌ وَيَجْلِسُ آخَرُونَ فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ لِسَمُرَةَ أَكَانَ يُمَدُّ؟ فَقَالَ سَمُرَةُ مِنْ أَيِّ شَيْءٍ تَتَعَجَّبَ؟ مَا كَانَ يُمَدُّ إِلَّا مِنْ هَا هُنَا وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ
