When the supper is brought and the prayer begins, one, should first take food.  

مسلم:٥٥٧aأَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو النَّاقِدُ وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا حَضَرَ الْعَشَاءُ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ  

muslim:557bHārūn b. Saʿīd al-Aylī > Ibn Wahb > ʿAmr > Ibn Shihāb > Anas b. Mālik

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When the supper is brought before you, and it is also the time to say prayer, first take food before saying evening prayer and do not hasten (to prayer, leaving aside the food).  

مسلم:٥٥٧bحَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرٌو عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا قُرِّبَ الْعَشَاءُ وَحَضَرَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تُصَلُّوا صَلاَةَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَلاَ تَعْجَلُوا عَنْ عَشَائِكُمْ  

muslim:558Abū Bakr b. Abū Shaybah > Ibn Numayr And Ḥafṣ Wawakīʿ > Hishām from his father > ʿĀʾishah

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Anas by another chain of transmitters.  

مسلم:٥٥٨حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ وَحَفْصٌ وَوَكِيعٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَنَسٍ  

muslim:559a[Chain 1] Ibn Numayr from my father [Chain 2] Abū Bakr b. Abū Shaybah > Abū Usāmah > ʿUbaydullāh > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When the supper is served to any one of you and the prayer also begins. (in such a case) first take supper, and do not make haste (for prayer) till you have (taken the food).  

مسلم:٥٥٩aحَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ح قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا وُضِعَ عَشَاءُ أَحَدِكُمْ وَأُقِيمَتِ الصَّلاَةُ فَابْدَءُوا بِالْعَشَاءِ وَلاَ يَعْجَلَنَّ حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْهُ  

muslim:559b[Chain 1] Muḥammad b. Isḥāq al-Musayyabī > Anas / Ibn ʿIyāḍ > Mūsá b. ʿUqbah [Chain 2] Hārūn b. ʿAbdullāh > Ḥammād b. Masʿadah > Ibn Jurayj [Chain 3] al-Ṣalt b. Masʿūd > Sufyān b. Mūsá > Ayyūb > Nāfiʿ > Ibn ʿUmar

A hadith like this has been narrated from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the authority of Ibn 'Umar with another chain of transmitters.  

مسلم:٥٥٩bوَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْمُسَيَّبِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي أَنَسٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عِيَاضٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ ح قَالَ وَحَدَّثَنَا الصَّلْتُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى عَنْ أَيُّوبَ كُلُّهُمْ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِنَحْوِهِ  

muslim:560aMuḥammad b. ʿAbbād > Ḥātim > Ibn Ismāʿīl > Yaʿqūb b. Mujāhid > Ibn Abū ʿAtīq > Taḥaddatht > And al-Qāsim

Al-Qasim was in the presence of 'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) that I narrated a hadith and Qasim was a man who committed errors in (pronouncing words) and his mother was a freed slave-girl. 'A'isha said to him: What is the matter with you that you do not narrate as this son of my brother narrated (the ahaditb)? Well I know from where you picked it up. This is how his mother brought him up and how your mother brought you up. Qasim felt angry (on this remark of Hadrat 'A'isha) and showed bitterness towards her. When he saw that the table had been spread for 'A'isha, he stood up, 'A'isha, said: Where are you going? He said: (I am going) to say prayer. She said: Sit down (to take the food). He said: I must say prayer. She said: Sit down, ) faithless, for I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: No prayer can be (rightly said) when the food is there (before the worshipper), or when he is prompted by the call of nature.  

مسلم:٥٦٠aحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمٌ هُوَ ابْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَتِيقٍ قَالَ

تَحَدَّثْتُ أَنَا وَالْقَاسِمُ عِنْدَ عَائِشَةَ ؓ حَدِيثًا وَكَانَ الْقَاسِمُ رَجُلاً لَحَّانَةً وَكَانَ لأُمِّ وَلَدٍ فَقَالَتْ لَهُ عَائِشَةُ مَا لَكَ لاَ تَحَدَّثُ كَمَا يَتَحَدَّثُ ابْنُ أَخِي هَذَا أَمَا إِنِّي قَدْ عَلِمْتُ مِنْ أَيْنَ أُتِيتَ هَذَا أَدَّبَتْهُ أُمُّهُ وَأَنْتَ أَدَّبَتْكَ أُمُّكَ قَالَ فَغَضِبَ الْقَاسِمُ وَأَضَبَّ عَلَيْهَا فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَائِدَةَ عَائِشَةَ قَدْ أُتِيَ بِهَا قَامَ قَالَتْ أَيْنَ قَالَ أُصَلِّي قَالَتِ اجْلِسْ قَالَ إِنِّي أُصَلِّي قَالَتِ اجْلِسْ غُدَرُ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لاَ صَلاَةَ بِحَضْرَةِ الطَّعَامِ وَلاَ وَهُوَ يُدَافِعُهُ الأَخْبَثَانِ

'Abdullah b. 'Atiq narrated from the Apostle ﷺ on the authority of 'A'isha, but he made no mention of the account of Qasim.  

مسلم:٥٦٠bحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ وَابْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالُوا حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ وَهُوَ ابْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو حَزْرَةَ الْقَاصُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي عَتِيقٍ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِمِثْلِهِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِي الْحَدِيثِ قِصَّةَ الْقَاسِمِ
