(وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ بَعَثَنِي النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَاجَةٍ فَجِئْتُ وَهُوَ يَأْكُلُ تَمْرًا وَهُوَ مُقْعٍ
(Second chain) It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me for a task. When I returned, he was reclining with his shins raised and his back on the ground, eating dates.
