English

[53171 143 – (…) Anas bin Mâlik narrated: "Abfl Talhah sent me to the Messenger of Allah to invite him, as he had made some food. I came and found the Messenger of Allah with the people. He looked at me and I felt shy, so I said: Accept the invitation of Abfl Talhah.' He said to the people: 'Get up.' Abü Talhah said: '0 Messenger of Allah, I only made something for you." He said: "The Messenger of Allah touched it and prayed that it might be blessed, then he said: 'Admit a group of my Companions, ten men.' And he said: 'Eat.' He brought out something for them from between his fingers, and they ate until they were full, then they left. Then he said: 'Admit (another) ten,' and they ate and left. They kept coming and going, ten by ten, until there was no one left who had not come in and eaten his fill. Then he collected it and it was as it had been when they ate from it."
