English narration

Narrated by وحشي بن حرب الحبشي

Narrated Wahshi ibn Harb: The Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said: Messenger of Allah ﷺ we eat but we are not satisfied. He said: Perhaps you eat separately. They replied: Yes. He said: If you gather together at your food and mention Allah's name, you will be blessed in it. Abu Dawud said: If you are invited to a wedding feast before you, do not take it until the owner of the house (i. e. the host) allows you (to eat).

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى الرَّازِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي وَحْشِيُّ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالُوا : "

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا نَأْكُلُ وَلَا نَشْبَعُ ، قَالَ : فَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَفْتَرِقُونَ ؟ ، قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَاجْتَمِعُوا عَلَى طَعَامِكُمْ ، وَاذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ يُبَارَكْ لَكُمْ فِيهِ

" ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد : إِذَا كُنْتَ فِي وَلِيمَةٍ فَوُضِعَ الْعَشَاءُ فَلَا تَأْكُلْ حَتَّى يَأْذَنَ لَكَ صَاحِبُ الدَّارِ .
