حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُفَضَّلُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ الشَّهِيدِ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ : أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " أَخَذَ بِيَدِ مَجْذُومٍ فَوَضَعَهَا مَعَهُ فِي الْقَصْعَةِ ، وَقَالَ : كُلْ ثِقَةً بِاللَّهِ وَتَوَكُّلًا عَلَيْهِ " .
Narrated Jabir ibn Abdullah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took a man who was suffering from tubercular leprosy by the hand; he then put it along with his own hand in the dish and said: Eat with confidence in Allah and trust in Him.

Explanation:
1:
The scholars say that the Prophet did this to show those who are strong in their faith and trust (tawakkul), and who endure disliked matters with patience and refer them to divine decree (qada wa qadar). That is why, for those who cannot be patient over disliked matters and feel fear regarding themselves, the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam said: (Farr min al-majdhūm kamā tafirr min al-asad) — "Flee from the leper as you would flee from a lion." Thus, for such people, avoiding and keeping away from them is recommended (mustahabb), but not obligatory (wajib), and eating and drinking with them is to clarify its permissibility.
Note:
(In the chain of narration, Mufaddal Basri is a weak narrator.)
