(3) Chapter: To eat of the dish what is nearer to you
5
حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَلْحَلَةَ الدِّيلِيِّ، عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ أَبِي نُعَيْمٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ـ وَهْوَ ابْنُ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ ـ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ أَكَلْتُ يَوْمًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم طَعَامًا فَجَعَلْتُ آكُلُ مِنْ نَوَاحِي الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " كُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيكَ ".
Narrated `Umar bin Al Salama:
Who was the son of Um Salama, the wife of the Prophet: Once I ate a meal with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and I was eating from all sides of the dish. So Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said to me, "Eat of the dish what is nearer to you."
