Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that a tailor invited the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to a meal. Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said that I also went with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to that invitation. The tailor presented bread and broth, in which there were pieces of gourd and roasted meat, before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). I saw that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was searching for pieces of gourd in the bowl. From that day, I also began to like gourd continuously.
