Ubaid ibn Jabr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that once, during the month of Ramadan, I set out from Fustat in a boat with a companion of the Prophet (peace be upon him), Hazrat Abu Ghafari (may Allah be pleased with him). When the boat started moving, breakfast was presented to him. He asked me to come closer. I said, "We still cannot see the buildings of the city?" He said, "Do you want to turn away from the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him)?" I said, "No." He said, "Then eat." So we continued eating and drinking until we reached our destination.
