[Machine] I missed dinner one night, so I started moving around so that sleep wouldn't come to me. I said to myself, "If I go out to the mosque and pray whatever I am able, I will do so." So, I did that and then leaned against one of its walls. Umar entered and when he saw me, he criticized me and said, "Who is this?" I said, "Abu Bakr." He asked, "What brought you out at this hour?" I replied, "Hunger." He said, "I was not brought out except by the One who brought you out." It wasn't long before the Prophet ﷺ entered and when he saw us, he criticized Umar and said, "Who are these two?" Umar spoke up and said, "This is Abu Bakr and this is Umar." The Prophet asked, "What brought the two of you out at this hour?" We told him the reason and he said, "The One who brought you out is the One who brought me out. So, come with us to the house of Al-Waqimiy." We arrived at the door and sought permission to enter. The woman of the house asked, "Where is so-and-so?" She was told, "He went to fetch us some dried dates from the family of Haritha." Then, she opened the door and we entered. We hadn't been there long before a man came carrying a piece of meat on his back, which he hung in a container made of palm stalks. He then came towards us and said, "Welcome, what a wonderful visit people have paid me tonight." He then brought some meat and we began selecting pieces under the moonlight and eating. The Prophet took out a knife and went among the sheep. He said to the man, "Beware of the udders." Or he said, "Beware of the cut." He then slaughtered a sheep for us, skinned it, and cut it into pieces in a cooking pot. He instructed the woman, who kneaded some dough and baked it. Then, he brought us a dish of soup and meat, and we ate. Afterward, he went to the container where the meat was hanging, and it was flapping in the wind. He blew on it and then gave us water to drink. The Prophet said, "Praise be to Allah, we left because of hunger and weren't expelled by anything else. Then, we didn't return until we attained this. This is one of the blessings that you will be asked about on the Day of Resurrection."  

فَاتَنِيَ الْعِشَاءُ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَجَعَلْتُ أَتَقَلَّبُ لَا يَأْتِينِي النَّوْمُ فَقُلْتُ لَوْ خَرَجْتُ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَصَلَّيْتُ مَا قُدِّرَ لِي فَفَعَلْتُ ثُمَّ اسْتَنَدْتُ إِلَى نَاحِيَةٍ مِنْهُ فَدَخَلَ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي أَنْكَرَنِي وَقَالَ مَنْ هَذَا؟ فَقُلْتُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ قَالَ مَا أَخْرَجَكَ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟ قُلْتُ الْجُوعُ قَالَ وَأَنَا مَا أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَّا الَّذِي أَخْرَجَكَ فَلَمْ يَلْبَثْ أَنْ دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى سَوَادَنَا أَنْكَرَهُ فَقَالَ «مَنْ هَذَانِ؟» فَبَدَرَنِي عُمَرُ فَقَالَ هَذَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَهَذَا عُمَرُ فَقَالَ «مَا أَخْرَجَكُمَا هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ؟» فَأَخْبَرْنَاهُ الْخَبَرَ قَالَ «وَأَنَا مَا أَخْرَجَنِي إِلَّا الَّذِي أَخْرَجَكُمَا انْطَلِقُوا بِنَا إِلَى مَنْزِلِ الْوَاقِمِيِّ» فَأَتَيْنَا الْبَابَ فَاسْتَأْذَنَّا فَخَرَجَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ فُلَانٌ؟» قَالَتْ ذَهَبَ يَسْتَعْذِبُ لَنَا مِنْ حَشِّ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ فَفَتَحْتِ الْبَابَ فَدَخَلْنَا فَلَمْ نَلْبَثْ أَنْ جَاءَ حَامِلًا قِرْبَةً عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ حَتَّى عَلَّقَهَا فِي كَرْنَفَةٍ مِنْ كَرَانِفِ النَّخْلِ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ إِلَيْنَا فَقَالَ مَرْحَبًا وَأَهْلًا مَا زَارَ النَّاسَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ زَوْرٍ زَارُونِي اللَّيْلَةَ ثُمَّ جَاءَ بِعِذْقِ بُسْرٍ فَجَعَلْنَا نَنْتَقِي فِي الْقَمَرِ وَنَأْكُلُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الشَّفْرَةَ وَجَالَ فِي الْغَنَمِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِيَّاكَ وَالْحَلُوبَ» أَوْ قَالَ «ذَاتَ الدَّرِّ» فَذَبَحَ لَنَا شَاةً وَسَلَخَهَا وَقَطَّعَهَا فِي الْقِدْرِ وَأَمَرَ الْمَرْأَةَ فَعَجَنَتْ وَخَبَزَتْ ثُمَّ جَاءَنَا بِثَرِيدَةٍ وَلَحْمٍ فَأَكَلْنَا ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى الْقِرْبَةِ وَقَدْ تَخَفَّقْهَا الرِّيحُ فَبَرَدَتْ فَأَسْقَانَا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ خَرَجْنَا لَمْ يُخْرِجْنَا إِلَّا الْجُوعُ ثُمَّ لَمْ نَرْجِعْ حَتَّى أَصَبْنَا هَذَا هَذَا مِنَ النَّعِيمِ الَّذِي تُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ»
