"أمَّا لَوْ سَكَت لَوَجَدْتَهَا مَا دعَوْتُكَ" .
ابن سعد، والحكيم، طِب عن أَبي رافع قال: أَمرني النبي ﷺ أَنْ أُصْلي له شَاةً فَصَلَيتُها ثم قال: نَاولِنِي الذِّرَاعَ فَنَاوَلْتُهُ، ثمَّ قال: ناولْنى الذِّرَاع فَناوَلْتُهُ، ثمّ قال نَاوِلْنى الذِّراع، فَقُلتُ: يا رسُول الله، كم لها من ذراع؟ قال فذكره.
[Machine] "I slaughtered a sheep for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , and he said, 'Give me the foreleg.' So, I gave it to him. Then he said, 'Give me the foreleg.' So, I gave it to him. Then he said, 'Give me the foreleg.' I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, a sheep only has two forelegs.' He said, 'If you had sought it, you would have found it.'"
ذَبَحْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّمَا لِلشَّاةِ ذِرَاعَانِ قَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّكَ لَوِ ابْتَغَيْتَهُ لَوَجَدْتَهُ»
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ instructed me to pray for him a sheep, so I prayed it for him. Then he said, "Pass me the shoulder." So, I passed him the shoulder. Then he said, "Pass me the shoulder." So, I passed him the shoulder. Then he said, "Pass me the shoulder." So, I said, "O Messenger of Allah, how many shoulders does it have?" He said, "If you had remained silent, you would have found it had more than you can count."
أَمَرَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ أُصْلِيَ لَهُ شَاةً فَصَلَيْتُهَا لَهُ فَقَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ الذِّرَاعَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ الذِّرَاعَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ كَمْ لَهَا مِنْ ذِرَاعٍ؟ فَقَالَ «أَمَا لَوْ سَكَتَّ لَوَجَدْتَهَا مَا دَعَوْتُكَ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon us and we had cooked mutton with us. He said, "O Abu Rafi', give me the forearm." So I handed it to him and he ate it. Then he said, "Give me the forearm." So I handed it to him and he ate it. Then he said, "Give me the forearm." So I said, "O Messenger of Allah, does the mutton have anything other than two forearms?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If you had remained silent, I would have continued to eat forearms as long as I wished."
دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَعِنْدَنَا شَاةٌ مَطْبُوخَةٌ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا رَافِعٍ نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ فَأَكَلَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَنَاوَلْتُهُ فَأَكَلَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «نَاوِلْنِي الذِّرَاعَ» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَهَلْ لِلشَّاةِ إِلَّا ذِرَاعَانِ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ سَكَتَّ لَأَعْطَيْتَنِي أَذْرُعًا مَا دَعَوْتُهَا»
