Hadith 25155

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ ، عَنْ فُلَيْتٍ ، حَدَّثَتْنِي جَسْرَةُ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ : مَا رَأَيْتُ صَانِعَةَ طَعَامٍ مِثْلَ صَفِيَّةَ ، أَهْدَتْ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَاءً فِيهِ طَعَامٌ ، فَمَا مَلَكْتُ نَفْسِي أَنْ كَسَرْتُهُ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، مَا كَفَّارَتُهُ ؟ فَقَالَ : " إِنَاءٌ كَإِنَاءٍ ، وَطَعَامٌ كَطَعَامٍ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that I have not seen a woman who cooked better food than Hazrat Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her). Once, she sent a dish to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in which there was food. I could not control myself and broke that dish. Then I asked, "O Messenger of Allah! What is its expiation?" So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "A dish like the dish and food like the food."
