ذكر العلة التي من أجلها قال صلى الله عليه وسلم للكباث الأسود إنه أطيب من غيره-
Reason why the Prophet said the black kabath fruit is better than others
Hadith 5144
أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ نَجْتَنِي الْكَبَاثَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " عَلَيْكُمْ بِالأَسْوَدِ مِنْهُ ، فَإِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُ ، وَإِنِّي كُنْتُ آكُلُهُ زَمَنَ كُنْتُ أَرْعَى " ، قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، وَكُنْتَ تَرْعَى ؟ فَقَالَ : " وَهَلْ بُعِثَ نَبِيٌّ إِلا وَهُوَ رَاعٍ " .
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: We were with the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and we were picking pilu (a type of fruit). The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Pick the black ones from them because they are purer. I used to eat them in the days when I used to herd goats. The people asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! Did you also herd goats? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied: Every prophet who was sent has herded goats.
