Mu'jam Kabir Tabarani 7014 — from Sayyiduna Samurah that the Prophet ﷺ
اُردوEn
وَبِإِسْنَادِهِ عَنْ سَمُرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَقُولُ: «أَيُّكُمْ مَا صَنَعَ طَعَامًا قَدْرَ مَا يَكْفِي رَجُلَيْنِ، فَإِنَّهُ يَكْفِي ثَلَاثَةً، أَوْ صَنَعَ لِثَلَاثَةٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَكْفِي أَرْبَعَةً، أَوْ لِأَرْبَعَةٍ فَإِنَّهُ يَكْفِي خَمْسَةً، فَكَنَحْوِ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْعَدَدِ»
Through the same chain, it is narrated from Sayyiduna Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "Whoever among you prepares food enough for two men, it suffices for three; whoever prepares it for three, it suffices for four; and whoever prepares it for four, it suffices for five; and so on in number (onward)."
