مُسْنَدُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ خَادِمِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Three-Narrator Ahadith 115
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was with one of his wives — I believe it was ʿĀʾishah — when one of the Mothers of the Believers sent her servant with a bowl of food. The [host] wife struck the servant’s hand and the bowl broke in two. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ began to say: “Your mother has become jealous.” He then gathered the two halves and put them together, placed the food back in them, and said: “Eat.” So they ate. He kept the servant and the broken bowl until everyone had finished eating, then he gave the servant a sound bowl [to take back] and kept the broken one in its place. Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 115
حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَخْبَرَنَا حُمَيْدٌ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ نِسَائِهِ — أَظُنُّهَا عَائِشَةَ — فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِحْدَى أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ مَعَ خَادِمٍ لَهَا بِقَصْعَةٍ فِيهَا طَعَامٌ، قَالَ: فَضَرَبَتِ الْأُخْرَى بِيَدِ الْخَادِمِ، فَكُسِرَتِ الْقَصْعَةُ بِنِصْفَيْنِ، قَالَ: فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «غَارَتْ أُمُّكُمْ». قَالَ: وَأَخَذَ الْكَسْرَيْنِ فَضَمَّ إِحْدَاهُمَا إِلَى الْأُخْرَى، فَجَعَلَ فِيهَا الطَّعَامَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «كُلُوا» فَأَكَلُوا. وَحَبَسَ الرَّسُولَ وَالْقَصْعَةَ حَتَّى فَرَغُوا، فَدَفَعَ إِلَى الرَّسُولِ قَصْعَةً أُخْرَى، وَتَرَكَ الْمَكْسُورَةَ مَكَانَهَا.
