Hadith 6094
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: كَانَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ طَيْرٌ فَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ ائْتِنِي بِأَحَبِّ خَلْقِكَ إِلَيْكَ يَأْكُلُ مَعِي هَذَا الطَّيْرَ» فجَاء عَلِيٌّ فَأَكَلَ مَعَهُ. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيُّ وَقَالَ: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ
Anas told that the Prophet had a bird and said, "0 God, bring me Thy creature who is dearest to Thee to eat this bird along with me." `Ali then came and ate along with him. Tirmidhi transmitted it, saying this is a gharib tradition.
