(3270) One Who Swears Not To Eat Food
حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل، عَنِ الْجُرَيْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُثْمَانَ، أَوْ عَنْ أَبِي السَّلِيلِ عَنْهُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، قَالَ: نَزَلَ بِنَا أَضْيَافٌ لَنَا، قَالَ: وَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَتَحَدَّثُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِاللَّيْلِ، فَقَالَ: لَا أَرْجِعَنَّ إِلَيْكَ حَتَّى تَفْرُغَ مِنْ ضِيَافَةِ هَؤُلَاءِ، وَمِنْ قِرَاهُمْ، فَأَتَاهُمْ بِقِرَاهُمْ، فَقَالُوا: لَا نَطْعَمُهُ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، فَجَاءَ، فَقَالَ: مَا فَعَلَ أَضْيَافُكُمْ، أَفَرَغْتُمْ مِنْ قِرَاهُمْ ؟، قَالُوا: لَا، قُلْتُ: قَدْ أَتَيْتُهُمْ بِقِرَاهُمْ فَأَبَوْا، وَقَالُوا: وَاللَّهِ لَا نَطْعَمُهُ حَتَّى يَجِيءَ، فَقَالُوا: صَدَقَ، قَدْ أَتَانَا بِهِ، فَأَبَيْنَا حَتَّى تَجِيءَ، قَالَ: فَمَا مَنَعَكُمْ ؟، قَالُوا: مَكَانَكَ، قَالَ: وَاللَّهِ لَا أَطْعَمُهُ اللَّيْلَةَ، قَالَ: فَقَالُوا: وَنَحْنُ وَاللَّهِ لَا نَطْعَمُهُ حَتَّى تَطْعَمَهُ، قَالَ: مَا رَأَيْتُ فِي الشَّرِّ كَاللَّيْلَةِ قَطُّ، قَالَ: قَرِّبُوا طَعَامَكُمْ، قَالَ: فَقَرَّبَ طَعَامَهُمْ، فَقَالَ: بِسْمِ اللَّهِ، فَطَعِمَ وَطَعِمُوا، فَأُخْبِرْتُ أَنَّهُ أَصْبَحَ، فَغَدَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخْبَرَهُ بِالَّذِي صَنَعَ، وَصَنَعُوا، قَالَ: بَلْ أَنْتَ أَبَرُّهُمْ وَأَصْدَقُهُمْ .
SAHIH HADITH:
Narrated Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr: Some guests visited us, and Abu Bakr was conversing with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم at night. He (Abu Bakr) said: I will not return to you until you are free from their entertainment and serving them food. So he brought them food, but they said: We shall not eat it until Abu Bakr comes (back). Abu Bakr then came and asked: What did your guest do? Are you free from their entertainment ? They said: No. I said: I brought them food, but they refused and said: We swear by Allah, we shall not take it until he comes. They said: He spoke the truth. He brought it to us, but we refused (to take it) until you come. He asked: What did prevent you ? He said: I swear by Allah, I shall not take food tonight. They said: And we also swear by Allah that we shall not take food until you take it. He said: I never saw an evil like the one tonight. He said: Bring your food near (you). He (Abdur-Rahman) said: Their food was then brought near them. He said: In the name of Allah, and he took the food, and they also took it. I then informed him that the dawn had broken. So he went to th Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم and informed him of what he and they had done. He said: You are the most obedient and most trustful of them.
