The Prophet loved meat
Hadith 178
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ نُبَيْحٍ الْعَنَزِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ: أَتَانَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي مَنْزِلِنَا فَذَبَحْنَا لَهُ شَاةً، فَقَالَ: «كَأَنَّهُمْ عَلِمُوا أَنَّا نُحِبُّ اللَّحْمَ» وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ قِصَّةٌ "
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to our house to visit us, so we slaughtered a goat for him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "They did this as if they knew that we like meat." There is an incident in this narration.
