[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Providing food during a wedding for one day is a recommended act, providing food for two days is a virtue, and providing food for three days is to show off and seek reputation."  

الطبراني:١١٣٣١حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ سَوْرَةَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يُونُسَ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْعَرْزَمِيُّ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ طَعَامٌ فِي الْعُرْسِ يَوْمٌ سُنَّةٌ وَطَعَامُ يَوْمَيْنِ فَضْلٌ وَطَعَامُ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ رِيَاءٌ وَسُمْعَةٌ
