Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I entered the mosque and saw signs of hunger on the face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). So I came to Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her); the narrator says: she is the mother of Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him); she had earlier been the wife of Malik, the father of Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) (then she had married Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him)). I said: "O Umm Sulaym, I have sensed signs of hunger on the face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Do you have anything?" She said: "I have a little something," indicating with her palm. I said to her: "Prepare that very thing, and prepare it well." Then I sent Anas to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and I said: "Invite the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) by whispering in his ear." When Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) came, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O my son! Has your father sent you, and has he invited us?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Set off, taking the name of Allah." The narrator says: Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) hurried back to Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is coming to you along with some people." The narrator says: I met the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) near the door, and I said: "O Messenger of Allah! What have you done to us? I had only sensed signs of hunger on your face, so we prepared food for you so that you could eat something." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go inside and receive good news." The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the food, put it into a bowl with his blessed hand, then began to set it right. Then he asked: "Is there anything?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) meant some curry. They brought their small skin container in which there was a little something, or perhaps nothing at all. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) squeezed ghee out of it with his blessed hand, then he said: "Keep bringing in ten men at a time to me." All of those people kept eating and becoming full. Regarding the extra food that was left over, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You and your dependants eat it." So they too ate and were full.
Abu Ya'la and al-Tabarani recorded it, and he (al-Tabarani) recorded these additional words: "They numbered about one hundred." The narrators of both narrations are the narrators of the Sahih.
