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.  

مسلم:٢٠٣٧وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَنَسٍ

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
