Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I saw cucumber in the right hand of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and fresh dates in his left hand. He would eat from this one at one time and then from that one (that is, he would take one bite from this and one from that).
Imam al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat within a long hadith, which contains a narrator, Asram bin Hawshab, and he is matruk (abandoned).
