Musnad Abi Ya'la 6194 — a man came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: أَتَى رَجُلٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَصَابَنِي الْجَهْدُ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى نِسَائِهِ فَلَمْ يَجِدْ عِنْدَهُنَّ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ: «أَلَا رَجُلٌ يُضِيفُ هَذَا اللَّيْلَةَ؟»، فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ فَذَهَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِهِ، فَقَالَ لِأَهْلِهِ: ضَيْفُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم لَا تَدَّخِرِيهِ شَيْئًا، فَقَالَتْ: وَاللَّهِ مَا عِنْدِي إِلَّا قُوتُ الصِّبْيَةِ، قَالَ: فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الصِّبْيَةُ الْعَشَاءَ فَنَوِّمِيهِمْ، وَتَعَالَيْ فَأَطْفِئِي السِّرَاجَ فَنَطْوِي بُطُونَنَا اللَّيْلَةَ، فَفَعَلَتْ، ثُمَّ غَدَا الرَّجُلُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ: «لَقَدْ عَجِبَ اللَّهُ - أَوْ ضَحِكَ اللَّهُ - مِنْ فُلَانٍ وَفُلَانَةَ»، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ {وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ} [الحشر: 9]
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, hardship (hunger) has struck me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) sent word to his wives, but there was no food with them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Who will host this man tonight?" A man got up, went to his family and said to his wife: "This is the guest of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); do not hold back anything from him." His wife said: "By Allah, I have nothing except the children's food." He said: "Put the children to sleep, put out the lamp, and tonight we will go hungry." They did so. The next morning the man went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he said: "Allah marvelled at the deed of this man and woman," or he said: "Allah laughed." Then the verse was revealed: "And they give (others) preference over themselves, even though they are in need."
