Sahl reported,

Sahl bin Saad said, "We used to rejoice on Fridays."I asked, "Why?"He replied, "We had an elderly woman who would send for some beets from Budaah." Ibn Muslim said, "Budaah is a palm grove in Medina." "She would take the roots of the beets and put them in a pot, then grind some barley grains and add them. When we had prayed the Friday prayer, we would leave and go greet her, and she would serve it to us. We rejoiced because of it. We did not take our midday nap or eat lunch until after the Friday prayer."

عن سهل، قال

كنا نفرح يوم الجمعة، قلت: ولم؟ قال: كانت لنا عجوز، ترسل إلى بضاعة-قال ابن مسلمة: نخل بالمدينة- فتأخذ من أصول السلق، فتطرحه في قدر، وتكركر حبات من شعير، فإذا صلينا الجمعة انصرفنا، ونسلم عليها، فتقدمه إلينا، فنفرح من أجله، وما كنا نقيل ولا نتغدى إلا بعد الجمعة.
