Volume 3, Book 44, Number 670:
Narrated Jabala:
"While at Medina we were struck with famine. Ibn Az-Zubair used to provide us with dates as our
food. Ibn 'Umar used to pass by us and say, "Don't eat two dates together at a time as the Prophet has
forbidden eating two dates together at a time (in a gathering) unless one takes the permission of
one's companion brother."
