الترجمة الإنجليزية
Abu Hurairah said: "By Allah, besides Whom there is no god, I used to press my liver against the ground from hunger and tie a stone to my stomach from hunger. One day I sat on their path where they would pass. Abu Bakr passed by and I asked him about a verse from the Book of Allah, only so he would invite me to eat, but he passed on. Then Umar passed and I asked him about a verse, only so he would invite me, but he passed on. Then Abu al-Qasim (peace be upon him) passed, and he smiled when he saw me and recognized what was in my heart and on my face. He said: 'O Abu Hurairah!' I said: 'At your service, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'Follow me.' He entered and I asked permission and was admitted. He found milk in a cup and asked: 'Where did this milk come from?' They said: 'So-and-so sent it to you.' He said: 'O Abu Hurairah, go to the People of the Suffah and invite them.' The People of the Suffah were the guests of Islam who had no family or wealth. When charity came to him, he would send it to them without taking any. When a gift came, he would send for them and share it. I was saddened and thought: what is this little milk among the People of the Suffah? I hoped to get a sip to strengthen myself, but I had to obey Allah and His Messenger. I called them and they came. He said: 'O Abu Hurairah, take it and give it to them.' I gave the cup to each man who drank until he was satisfied, then returned it to me, until all had drunk. Then the Prophet took the cup, placed it on his hand, looked at me and smiled, and said: 'O Abu Hurairah, only you and I remain.' I said: 'You have spoken the truth, O Messenger of Allah.' He said: 'Sit and drink.' I sat and drank. He kept saying 'Drink,' until I said: 'By the One Who sent you with the truth, I can find no more room for it!' He said: 'Then show me,' and I gave him the cup. He praised Allah, said Bismillah, and drank the rest." Recorded by al-Bukhari.
