It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a bowl of food was presented to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) ate from it, and some food remained in it. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “A man from Paradise will come by this mountain path and eat this leftover food.” Sayyiduna Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I had left my brother Umair making ablution, and I wished in my heart that Umair would come, but then Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Salam (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived and ate the leftover food.
