حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ خَيْثَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي (١) حُذَيْفَةَ، عَنْ حُذَيْفَةَ قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ، فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ كَأَنَّمَا يُطْرَدُ، فَذَهَبَ يَتَنَاوَلُ، فَأَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهِ، وَجَاءَتْ جَارِيَةٌ كَأَنَّهَا تُطْرَدُ فَأَهْوَتْ، فَأَخَذَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِهَا، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَمَّا أَعْيَيْتُمُوهُ جَاءَ بِالْأَعْرَابِيِّ وَالْجَارِيَةِ يَسْتَحِلُّ الطَّعَامَ إِذَا (٢) لَمْ يُذْكَرْ اسْمُ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ، بِسْمِ اللهِ كُلُوا " (٣)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Hudhaifa (may Allah be pleased with him) that when we were sharing a meal with the Noble Prophet (ﷺ), a slave girl came in, and it seemed as if someone was pushing her. She tried to put her hand into the food, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) caught her hand. Then a Bedouin came in, and it seemed as if someone was pushing him. He tried to put his hand into the food, but the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) caught his hand as well and said: When the name of Allah is not mentioned over the food, Satan considers it lawful for himself. So, at first, he came with this slave girl to make the food lawful for himself, but I caught her hand. Then he came with this Bedouin to make the food lawful for himself through him, but I caught his hand as well. Therefore, eat after reciting Bismillah.
