Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that food was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) while he was at the place of "Maraz-Zahran." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with them): "Come near and eat." They said: "We are fasting." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Saddle the mounts for your companions and do work for them, come near and eat."
