0 ye, prepare for us food sufficient for five persons, for I intend to invite Allah's Apostle ﷺ who would be the fifth amongst the five. He (the narrator) reported that he then prepared the food and came to Allah's Apostle ﷺ and invited all the five (including him) who was the fifth amongst them to the feast. A man followed him and when Allah's Apostle ﷺ reached the door, he said: This man has followed us; if you like you may permit him (to join the meal) and if you like he can go back. Thereupon the person said: Messenger of Allah, I permit him.  

يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو شُعَيْبٍ وَكَانَ لَهُ غُلاَمٌ لَحَّامٌ فَرَأَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَرَفَ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْجُوعَ فَقَالَ لِغُلاَمِهِ وَيْحَكَ اصْنَعْ لَنَا طَعَامًا لِخَمْسَةِ نَفَرٍ فَإِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَدْعُوَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَامِسَ خَمْسَةٍ قَالَ فَصَنَعَ ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَدَعَاهُ خَامِسَ خَمْسَةٍ وَاتَّبَعَهُمْ رَجُلٌ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ الْبَابَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّ هَذَا اتَّبَعَنَا فَإِنْ شِئْتَ أَنْ تَأْذَنَ لَهُ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ رَجَعَ قَالَ لاَ بَلْ آذَنُ لَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ  

This hadith has been reported on the authority of Abu Mas'ud Ansari through another chain of transmitters.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِنَحْوِ حَدِيثِ جَرِيرٍ قَالَ نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ لِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ حَدَّثَنَا شَقِيقُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيُّ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ  

This hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Jabir also.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ جَابِرٍ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

Messenger of Allah ﷺ had a Persian neighbour who made excellent soup. He prepared some for Messenger of Allah ﷺ and then came to him to invite him to eat. He (Messenger of Allah) said, "and her too," referring to ʿAisha. The man said "No," so Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said "No." He returned later to invite him again, so Messenger of Allah ﷺ said "and her too." The man said "No," so Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said "No." He returned another time to invite him and Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "and her too." The man said yes on this third occasion, and they then stood eagerly to go out together to the man's home.  

أَنَّ جَارًا لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَارِسِيًّا كَانَ طَيِّبَ الْمَرَقِ فَصَنَعَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَاءَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ وَهَذِهِ لِعَائِشَةَ فَقَالَ لاَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ فَعَادَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهَذِهِ قَالَ لاَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ ثُمَّ عَادَ يَدْعُوهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهَذِهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ فَقَامَا يَتَدَافَعَانِ حَتَّى أَتَيَا مَنْزِلَهُ
