حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، وَابْنُ أَبِي خَلَفٍ، أَنَّ يَحْيَى بْنَ الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَهُمْ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ أَبِي شَبِيبٍ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ [رضى الله عنها] مَرَّ بِهَا سَائِلٌ فَأَعْطَتْهُ كِسْرَةً وَمَرَّ بِهَا رَجُلٌ عَلَيْهِ ثِيَابٌ وَهَيْئَةٌ فَأَقْعَدَتْهُ فَأَكَلَ فَقِيلَ لَهَا فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " أَنْزِلُوا النَّاسَ مَنَازِلَهُمْ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَحَدِيثُ يَحْيَى مُخْتَصَرٌ . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ مَيْمُونٌ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ عَائِشَةَ .

Narrated Maimun ibn Abu Shabib:
A beggar passed by Aisha and she gave him a piece of bread. Another man who wore clothes and had a good appearance passed by her, and she made him sit down and he ate (with her). When she was asked about that, she replied: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Treat the people according to their ranks.Abu Dawud said: The version of Yahya is short.Abu Dawud said: Maimun did not meet 'A'ishah.
