حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ العَلاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ : " مَا شَبِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَهْلُهُ ثَلَاثًا تِبَاعًا مِنْ خُبْزِ الْبُرِّ حَتَّى فَارَقَ الدُّنْيَا " , هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ .
´Abu Hurairah narrated:` "Neither the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) nor his family, ate their fill of wheat bread for three consecutive days until he parted the world."

Hadith Commentary:

Abu Hurairah (radi Allahu anhu), recalling the condition of the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), did not find it agreeable to eat this food. And since this was not a wedding feast (walimah) invitation, accepting it was also not obligatory.

Hadith Commentary:
(1)
Abu Hurairah radi Allahu anhu reflected upon the extent of hardship in the worldly livelihood of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam and the noble Companions radi Allahu anhum. Therefore, he refused to eat the roasted goat, and recalling the condition of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he did not find it agreeable to eat it.
(2)
Since this was not a wedding feast (walimah), accepting this invitation was not obligatory, because it is prohibited to refuse a wedding feast invitation without a valid reason.
