The reciter: Isma'il narrated to us, saying: Malik narrated to us from Ishaq ibn 'Abd Allah ibn Abi Talhah that he heard Anas ibn Malik say:
The Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest, Glory be to Allah. This is from the blessing of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his supplication. Read the second hadith, for it is related to this one.
Abu Talhah said to Umm Sulaym, "I have heard the voice of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) weak, and I recognize hunger in it. Do you have anything?" She brought out some flatbreads of barley, then she brought out a head covering of hers and wrapped the bread in part of it, then she placed it under my garment and gave me part of it, then she sent me to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: So I went with it and found the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the mosque with the people. I stood over them, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Did Abu Talhah send you?" I said: "Yes." He said: "With food?" I said: "Yes." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to those with him: "Rise and come." And I went ahead of them until I came to Abu Talhah. Abu Talhah said: "O Umm Sulaym, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has come with the people, and we have no food with which to feed them." She said: "Allah and His Messenger know best." So Abu Talhah went out until he met the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Abu Talhah and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came in. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring me, O Umm Sulaym, what you have." She brought that bread. He ordered it to be broken, and Umm Sulaym squeezed some of her date paste onto it, making it moist. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said in it what he willed to say. Then he said: "Admit ten." He admitted them, and they ate until they were full, then they went out. Then he said: "Admit ten." He admitted them, and they ate until they were full, then they went out. Then he said: "Admit ten." He admitted them, and they ate until they were full, then they went out. Then he admitted ten. The people all ate and were full, and the people were eighty men.
