Bayhaqi 4337 — A Muslim spending the night in the mosque

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ بِبَغْدَادَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ دَرَسْتَوَيْهِ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ، ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَيَّانَ، ثنا دَاوُدُ بْنُ أَبِي هِنْدَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ النَّضْرِيِّ قَالَ: قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ مُهَاجِرًا وَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ إِذَا قَدِمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ عَرِيفٌ نَزَلَ عَلَيْهِ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ عَرِيفٌ نَزَلَ الصُّفَّةَ، فَقَدِمْتُهَا وَلَيْسَ لِي بِهَا عَرِيفٌ فَنَزَلَتِ الصُّفَّةَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُرَافِقُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ وَيَقْسِمُ بَيْنَهُمَا مُدًّا مِنْ تَمْرٍ فَبَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي صَلَاتِهِ إِذْ أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَحْرَقَ بُطُونَنَا التَّمْرُ، وَتَخَرَّقَتْ عَنَّا الْخُنُفُ قَالَ: وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، وَذَكَرَ مَا لَقِيَ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي وَصَاحِبِي مَكَثْنَا بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ لَيْلَةً مَا لَنَا طَعَامٌ غَيْرُ الْبَرِيرِ "، وَالْبَرِيرُ ثَمَرُ الْأَرَاكِ " حَتَّى أَتَيْنَا إِخْوَانَنَا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَآسَوْنَا مِنْ طَعَامِهِمْ، وَكَانَ جُلُّ طَعَامِهِمُ التَّمْرَ، وَالَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ لَوْ قَدَرْتُ لَكُمْ عَلَى الْخُبْزِ وَاللَّحْمِ لَأَطْعَمْتُكُمُوهُ، وَسَيَأْتِي عَلَيْكُمْ زَمَانٌ، أَوْ مَنْ أَدْرَكَهُ مِنْكُمْ تَلْبَسُونَ أَمْثَالَ أَسْتَارِ الْكَعْبَةِ، وَيُغْدَى وَيُرَاحُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْجِفَانِ " قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، نَحْنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ خَيْرٌ أَوِ الْيَوْمَ؟ قَالَ: " لَا بَلْ أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ خَيْرٌ، أَنْتُمُ الْيَوْمَ إِخْوَانٌ، وَأَنْتُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ يَضْرِبُ بَعْضُكُمْ رِقَابَ بَعْضٍ ".
Sayyiduna Talhah al-Nasri (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I came to Madinah as an emigrant. Whenever a man came to Madinah as an emigrant, if there was someone he knew, he would stay with him, and if not, he would stay with the people of the Suffah. When I came, I had no acquaintance either, so I stayed with the people of the Suffah. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pair men off two by two as companions and divide a mudd of dates between them. One day, while he (peace and blessings be upon him) was in prayer, a man suddenly called out: O Messenger of Allah, the dates have burned our stomachs and our woollen cloaks have torn away from us. The narrator said: He (peace and blessings be upon him), after praising and glorifying Allah Almighty, mentioned the hardship he (peace and blessings be upon him) had faced from his people, then said: "My companion and I stayed for more than ten nights with no food except the fruit of the arak tree, until we came to our brothers of the Ansar. They helped us with their food, and most of their food was dates. By Allah, besides whom there is no god, if I had the means to feed you bread and meat, I would certainly feed it to you. Soon a time will come upon you, or whoever of you lives to see it (will see that) you will wear clothes like the coverings of the Ka'bah, and large bowls of food will be brought to you morning and evening." They asked: O Messenger of Allah, are we better today, or will we be better on that day? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You are better today, for you are brothers, and on that day you will strike one another's necks."
