English narration
Narrated by عبد الله بن الحارث الزبيدي
Narrated Abdullah ibn Harith ibn Jaz: One of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ, came upon us in Egypt. When he was narrating traditions in the Mosque of Egypt, I heard him say: I was the seventh or the sixth person in the company of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in the house of a person. In the meantime Bilal came and called him for prayer. He came out and passed by a person who had his fire-pan on the fire. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him: Has the food in the fire-pan been cooked? He replied: Yes, my parents be sacrificed upon you. He then took a piece out of it and continued to chew it until he uttered the first takbir (AllahuAkbar) of the prayer. All this time I was looking at him.

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ السَّرْحِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ أَبِي كَرِيمَةَ ، قَالَ ابْنُ السَّرْحِ : بْنُ أَبِي كَرِيمَةَ مِنْ خِيَارِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ بْنُ ثُمَامَةَ الْمُرَادِيُّ ، قَالَ : قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مِصْرَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ جَزْءٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَمِعْتُهُ يُحَدِّثُ فِي مَسْجِدِ مِصْرَ ،قَالَ : "
لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي سَابِعَ سَبْعَةٍ أَوْ سَادِسَ سِتَّةٍ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي دَارِ رَجُلٍ ، فَمَرَّ بِلَالٌ فَنَادَاهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ ، فَخَرَجْنَا فَمَرَرْنَا بِرَجُلٍ وَبُرْمَتُهُ عَلَى النَّارِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : أَطَابَتْ بُرْمَتُكَ ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي ، فَتَنَاوَلَ مِنْهَا بَضْعَةً ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَعْلُكُهَا حَتَّى أَحْرَمَ بِالصَّلَاةِ وَأَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ
