The Miracles of the Nabi Pakﷺ – part 10

The Nabi Pakﷺ is a guest of Abû Talhah al-Ansârî :

Imâm al-Bukhârî related on the authority of Anas Ibn Mâlik who said: “Abû Talhah said to Umm Sulaim: “I have noticed feebleness in the voice of Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ which I think, is caused by hunger. Have you got any food?” She said: “Yes. She brought out some loaves of barley and took out a veil belonging to her, and wrapped the bread in part of it and put it under my arm and wrapped part of the veil round me and sent me to Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ I carried it and found Allâh’s Messengerﷺ in the Mosque sitting with some people. When I stood there, Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ asked: “Has Abû Talhah sent you?” I said: “Yes”. He asked: “With some food?” I said: “Yes”. The Prophetﷺ then said to the men around him: “Get up!” He set out (accompanied by them) and I went ahead of them till I reached Abû Talhah and told him (of the Prophet’s visit). Abû Talhah said: “O Umm Sulaim! Allâh’s Messenger ﷺis coming with the people and we have no food to feed them.” She said: “Allâh and His Messengerﷺ know better”. So Abû Talhah went out to receive Allâh’s Messenger ﷺ. Allâh’s Messenger ﷺcame along with Abû Talhah and said: “O Umm Sulaim! Bring whatever you have.” She brought the bread, which Allâh’s Messenger ordered to be broken into pieces. Umm Sulaim poured on them some butter from an oilskin. Then Allâh’s Messengerﷺ recited what Allâh wished him to recite, and then said: “Let ten persons come (to share the meal)”. Ten persons were admitted, and when they were full, they went out. Then he again said: “Let another ten do the same”. They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he again said: “Let another ten persons (do the same).” They were admitted, ate their fill and went out. Then he said: “Let another ten persons come.” In short, all of them ate their fill, and they were seventy or eighty men.

The Prophetﷺ is a guest of Jâbir Abdullâh: Imâm al-Bukhârî narrate on the authority of Jâbir Ibn ‘Abdullah wus said. “We were digging (the trench) on the day of (al-Khandaq, i.e. the trench) and we came across a large solid rock. We went to the Prophetﷺ and said, ” Here is a rock appearing across the trench.” He said, “I am coming down. Then he got up, and a stone was tied to his belly for we had not eaten anything for three days. So, the Prophet ﷺ took the spade and struck the large rock and it became like sand. I said, “O Allâh’s Messenger!ﷺ Allow me to go home.” (When the Prophetﷺ allowed me) I said to my wife, “I saw the Prophetﷺ in a state that I cannot take lightly, Have you got something (for him to eat)?” She replied, “ have barley and a she goat.” So I slaughtered the she-kid and she ground the barley: then we put the meat in an earthenware cooking pot. Then I came to the Prophet ﷺwhen the dough had become soft and fermented and (the meat in) the pot over the stone trivet was nearly cooked, and said, “I have got a little food prepared, so get up O Allâh’s Messengerﷺ, you and one or two men along with you (for the food).” The Prophetﷺ asked “How much is that food?” I told him about it. He said: “It is abundant and good. Tell your wife not to remove the earthenware pot from the fire and not to take out any bread from the oven till I reach there.” Then he said (to all his companions): “Get up”. So the emigrants and the Ansâr got up. When I came to my wife, I said: “Allâh’s Mercy be upon you! The Prophet came along with the emigrants and the Ansâr and those who were present with them.” She said, “Did the Prophet ﷺask you (how much food you had?” I replied “Yes” Then the Prophet ﷺsaid: “Enter and do not throng” The Prophetﷺ started cutting the bread (into pieces) and put the cooked meat over it. He covered the earthenware pot and the oven whenever he took something out of them. He would give the food to his companions and take the meat out of the pot. He went on cutting the bread and scooping the meat (for his companions) till they all ate their fill, and even then, some food remained. Then the Prophetﷺ said (to my wife): “Eat and present to others as the people are stricken with hunger “
