(حديث مرفوع) سَمِعْت
سُفْيَانَ يَقُولُ : " إِذَا كَفَى الْخَادِمُ أَحَدَكُمْ طَعَامَهُ ، فَلْيُجْلِسْهُ ، فَلْيَأْكُلْ مَعَهُ ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ ، فَلْيَأْخُذْ لُقْمَةً ، فَلْيُرَوِّغْهَا فِيهِ ، فَيُنَاوِلْهُ " . وَقُرِئَ عَلَيْهِ إِسْنَادُهُ : سَمِعْتُ
أَبَا الزِّنَادِ ، عَنِ
الْأَعْرَجِ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When a servant among you takes care of preparing food for him, he should make him sit with him and feed him. If he cannot do so, then he should take a morsel, soak it well in the curry, and give it to him.
