It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that my father (Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Haram (may Allah be pleased with him)) ordered khazirah (a dish prepared from meat and flour) to be made. When it was ready, he sent me and I took it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) was in his house at that time. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "O Jabir! What do you have with you? Is this meat?" I said: No. Then I returned to my father and he asked me: Did you see the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? I said: Yes. He asked: Did you hear him (peace and blessings be upon him) say anything? I said: Yes, he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "O Jabir! What do you have with you? Is this meat?" My father (on hearing this) said: Perhaps the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has a desire for meat. So he ordered a domestic sheep of ours to be slaughtered, then ordered it to be roasted, then he ordered me and I took it to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "O Jabir! What do you have with you?" So I informed him (peace and blessings be upon him). Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "May Allah Almighty reward the Ansar (may Allah be pleased with them) well on our behalf, especially Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin Haram and Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Ubadah (may Allah be pleased with them both)."
