Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 1081 — he said: Seven of the Companions
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ : إِنْ كَانَ السَّبْعَةُ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ لَيَمُصُّونَ التَّمْرَةَ الْوَاحِدَةَ ، وَأَكَلُوا الْخَبَطَ حَتَّى وَرِمَتْ أَشْدَاقُهُمْ I " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Seven of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (due to severe hunger) would suck a single date in turns, and they ate the leaves of trees until their jaws became swollen."
