[Machine] We were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a military expedition when the people suffered from hunger. The people asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for permission to slaughter some of their camels and said, "May Allah reward us for it." When Umar ibn al-Khattab saw that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ intended to grant them permission, he said, "O Messenger of Allah, what will happen to us when we meet the enemy tomorrow hungry and weak? But, O Messenger of Allah, if you see fit, you can call the people to gather whatever food they have left and then invoke blessings upon it. Indeed, Allah will respond to your invocation or bless us in your invocation." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then called for whatever food the people had left and the people started bringing dates, and the highest amount brought by any person was a sa' (measurement) of dates. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ collected them and then stood up, invoked what Allah willed him to invoke, and called the army to bring their vessels and serve themselves. There was not a vessel left with the army that was not filled, and the same amount was left. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ laughed until his molars were seen, and said, "I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that I am the Messenger of Allah. Allah will veil the fire from any servant who believes in them on the Day of Resurrection."
كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي غَزَاةٍ فَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ مَخْمَصَةٌ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ النَّاسُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فِي نَحْرِ بَعْضِ ظَهْرِهِمْ وَقَالُوا «يُبَلِّغُنَا اللهُ بِهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ هَمَّ أَنْ يَأْذَنَ لَهُمْ فِي نَحْرِ بَعْضِ ظَهْرِهِمْ» قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَيْفَ بِنَا إِذَا نَحْنُ لَقِينَا الْقَوْمَ غَدًا جِيَاعًا رِجَالًا وَلَكِنْ إِنْ رَأَيْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنْ تَدْعُوَ النَّاسَ بِبَقَايَا أَزْوَادِهِمْ فَتَجْمَعَهَا ثُمَّ تَدْعُوَ فِيهَا بِالْبَرَكَةِ فَإِنَّ اللهَ سَيُبَلِّغُنَا بِدَعْوَتِكَ أَوْ قَالَ سَيُبَارِكُ لَنَا فِي دَعْوَتِكَ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِبَقَايَا أَزْوَادِهِمْ فَجَعَلَ النَّاسُ يَجِيئُونَ يَعْنِي بِالْحَثْيَةِ مِنَ الطَّعَامِ وَفَوْقَ ذَلِكَ فَكَانَ أَعْلَاهُ مَنْ جَاءَ بِصَاعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَجَمَعَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَامَ فَدَعَا مَا شَاءَ اللهُ أَنْ يَدْعُوَ ثُمَّ دَعَا الْجَيْشَ بِأَوْعِيَتِهِمْ وَأَمَرَهُمْ أَنْ يَحْتَثُوا فَمَا بَقِيَ مِنَ الْجَيْشِ وِعَاءٌ إِلَّا مَلَؤُوهُ وَبَقِيَ مِثْلُهُ فَضَحِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ حَتَّى بَدَتْ نَوَاجِذُهُ فَقَالَ «أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ لَا يَلْقَى اللهَ عَبْدٌ يُؤْمِنُ بِهِمَا إِلَّا حُجِبَتْ عَنْهُ النَّارُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»
