883 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ جَابِرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَي النَّبِيِّ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَرَأَيْتُ عِنْدَهُ الدُّبَّاءَ، فَقُلْتُ: مَا هَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟، فَقَالَ: «نُكْثِرُ بِهِ طَعَامَ أَهْلِنَا»
Hakeem bin Jabir Ahmasi narrates from his father: I presented myself before the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). I saw that there was gourd (pumpkin) with him. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! Why is this? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "With this, we will increase the food (curry) for our family."
