We traveled with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the daily ration of each of us was a single date. A man would suck on it and then wrap it up again in his garment. We would beat leaves down from the trees with our bows and eat them, until the corners of our mouths were raw with sores. I swear, one day one of us was passed over and did not get his date, so we went along with him to speak up on his behalf, and we testified that he had not been given it. It was then given to him, and he rose and took it.
سرنا مع رسول الله ﷺ وكان قوت كل رجل منا في كل يوم تمرة فكان يمصها ثم يصرها في ثوبه وكنا نختبط بقسينا ونأكل حتى قرحت أشداقنا فأقسم أخطئها رجل منا يوما فانطلقنا به ننعشه فشهدنا أنه لم يعطها فأعطيها فقام فأخذها
