Sayyiduna Wathilah bin al-Asqa' (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was one of the people of the Suffah. My companions complained of hunger and said: "O Wathilah, go to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and ask him for food for us." So I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, my companions are complaining of hunger." the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Aishah, do you have anything?" She said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have nothing but some pieces of bread." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring it." She brought them in a bag. the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called for a large bowl, emptied the bread into the bowl, then began preparing tharid with his hands, and it kept increasing until the bowl was full. Then he said: "O Wathilah, go and bring ten of your companions, and you are the tenth of them." I went and brought ten of my companions, and I was the tenth of them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sit down, begin with Bismillah, eat from the sides and do not eat from the top, for the blessing descends from its top." They all ate until they were full, then they stood up, and in the bowl there remained as much food as there had been before. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) began to set it right again with his hand, and it kept increasing until it was full. Then he said: "O Wathilah, go and bring ten of your companions." I brought ten, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sit down." They sat, ate until they were full, then stood up. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and bring ten of your companions." I went and brought ten, and they did the same. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Is anyone left?" I said: "Yes, ten." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and bring them." I went and brought them, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Sit down." They sat, ate until they were full, then stood up, and there still remained in the bowl as much as there had been before. Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Wathilah, take this to Aishah."
