Chapter: Serving the Guest Personally
Hadith 746
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ سَهْلَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَا أُسَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيَّ ، دَعَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي عُرْسِهِ ، وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَتُهُ خَادِمَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ ، وَهِيَ الْعَرُوسُ ، فَقَالَتْ : أَوْ قَالَ : أَتَدْرُونَ مَا أَنْقَعْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ أَنْقَعْتُ لَهُ تَمَرَاتٍ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فِي تَوْرٍ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyiduna Abu Usaid Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) invited the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to his wedding feast (walimah). On that day, his wife herself served them, while she was the bride. She said: Do you know what I had soaked for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)? I had soaked some dates for him in a vessel at night.
