Hadith 14092

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " يُحِبُّ الْقَرْعَ ، أَوْ قَالَ : الدُّبَّاءَ " ، قَالَ : فَرَأَيْتُهُ يَوْمًا يَأْكُلُهُ ، فَجَعَلْتُ أَضَعُهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was very fond of bottle gourd (kaddu). Once, food was presented to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) or someone invited him, so since I knew that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) liked bottle gourd, I would separate it and place it before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
