The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came as a guest to Ubayy. He said, "We brought him food and a dish of dates mixed with butter, and he ate from it. Then dates were brought to him, and he would eat them and drop the pits between his two fingers, joining his index and middle fingers together."Shuba said, "This is what I think, and it is in the hadith, Allah willing."Then a drink was brought, and he drank from it, then handed it to the one on his right.Ubayy said, taking hold of the bridle of his mount, "Pray to Allah for us."He said, "O Allah, bless them in what You have provided for them, forgive them, and have mercy on them."
حدثنا محمد بن جعفر حدثنا شعبة عن يزيد بن خمير
نزل رسول الله ﷺ على أبي قال فقربنا له طعاما ووطبة فأكل منها ثم أتي بتمر فكان يأكله ويلقي النوى بأصبعيه يجمع السبابة والوسطى قال شعبة هو ظني وهو فيه إن شاء الله ثم أتي بشراب فشربه ثم ناوله الذي عن يمينه قال فقال أبي وأخذ بلجام دابته ادع الله لنا قال اللهم بارك لهم فيما رزقتهم واغفر لهم وارحمهم
