عَنْ عُمَيْرٍ مَوْلَى آبِي اللَّحْمِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ أَقْبَلْتُ مَعَ سَادَتِي نُرِيدُ الْهِجْرَةَ حَتَّى أَنْ دَنَوْنَا مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ فَدَخَلُوا الْمَدِينَةَ وَخَلَّفُونِي فِي ظَهْرِهِمْ قَالَ فَأَصَابَنِي مَجَاعَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ قَالَ فَمَرَّ بِي بَعْضُ مَنْ يَخْرُجُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَقَالُوا لِي لَوْ دَخَلْتَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَأَصَبْتَ مِنْ ثَمَرِ حَوَائِطِهَا فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا فَقَطَعْتُ مِنْهُ قِنْوَيْنِ فَأَتَانِي صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَأَتَى بِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَخْبَرَهُ خَبَرِي وَعَلَيَّ ثَوْبَانِ فَقَالَ لِي أَيُّهُمَا أَفْضَلُ فَأَشَرْتُ لَهُ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا فَقَالَ خُذْهُ وَأَعْطَى صَاحِبَ الْحَائِطِ الْآخَرَ وَخَلَّى سَبِيلِي
Sayyiduna Umair, the freed slave of Abi al-Lahm (may Allah be pleased with him), says: I was migrating to Madinah with my masters. When we neared Madinah, my masters left me behind and themselves entered Madinah. I became extremely hungry. Some people passing by on their way to Madinah saw me and said: (The solution to your hunger is) that you enter Madinah and eat fruit from a garden. So I entered a garden and had just plucked two bunches of dates when the owner of the garden arrived, caught me, and took me to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him my whole story. At that time, I was wearing two garments. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: Which of these two garments is better? I pointed to one of them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: Take this one. And he gave the other to the owner of the garden and let me go.
Hadith 6211
حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرٌ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ أَبِي الْحَكَمِ الْغِفَارِيَّ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَتْنِي جَدَّتِي عَنْ عَمِّ أَبِي رَافِعِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْغِفَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كُنْتُ وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ أَرْمِي نَخْلًا لِلْأَنْصَارِ فَأُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقِيلَ إِنَّ هَا هُنَا غُلَامًا يَرْمِي نَخْلَنَا فَأُتِيَ بِي إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا غُلَامُ لِمَ تَرْمِي النَّخْلَ قَالَ قُلْتُ آكُلُ قَالَ فَلَا تَرْمِي النَّخْلَ وَكُلْ مَا سَقَطَ فِي أَسَافِلِهَا ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسِي وَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ أَشْبِعْ بَطْنَهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Rafi’ bin Amr Ghafari, may Allah be pleased with him, who says: I was throwing stones at the dates of an Ansari, while I was still a boy. Then the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, was informed that a boy was throwing stones at the dates. Then I was brought to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and he said to me: O boy! Why were you throwing stones at the dates? I said: I was doing so to eat. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Do not throw stones at the dates, but eat from those dates which have fallen to the ground. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, passed his hand over my head and said: O Allah! Satisfy his stomach.
