Explanation of the Book of Marriage-17

The Shaykh :"And from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him), who said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) stayed three nights between Khaibar and al-Madinah when he consummated his marriage with Safiya (RA). I called the Muslims to his wedding feast which did not include bread or meat. He just ordered some leather dining sheets to be spread, and [Hais, a food made from] dates, sun-baked yogurt and butter were thrown on them.

أقام النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بين خيبر والمدينة ثلاث ليال يبنى عليه بصفية ، فدعوت المسلمين إلى وليمته ، فما كان فيه من خبز ولا لحم ، وما كان فيها إلا أن أمر بالأنطاع فبسطت فأُلقي عليها التمر والأقط والسمن

Bulugh al-Maram 8:95

It is agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim, and the wording is al-Bukhari's":
His statement: :
Khaybar: The name of a place containing farms, houses, and fortresses of the Jews, located about a hundred miles northwest of Madinah. It is well known. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) conquered it in the sixth year [of the Hijrah]. The Jews requested that he leave them there on the condition that they would have half the produce and he would have half the produce. So he left them on that condition, but he left them on that condition only as long as Allah willed, or as long as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and the Companions willed.
And during the caliphate of 'Umar, he (may Allah be pleased with him) expelled them from Khaybar because they had transgressed against 'Abdullah ibn 'Umar and had mistreated the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), so 'Umar expelled them.
And his statement: : Safiyyah bint Huyay ibn Akhtab. She is from the descendants of Aaron ibn Imran, so her maternal uncle was Moses (peace be upon him). And Huyay ibn Akhtab, her father, was one of the leaders of the Jews. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) chose her for himself to comfort her heart, because if her father was a leader and she had become the wife of one of the Companions, there would have been a breaking of her spirit in that. So the Prophet (may Allah's prayers and peace be upon him) wanted to comfort her heart, so he chose her for himself.
And his statement: : How is this called "being married" when she is a slave?
We say: Because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) freed her and made her freedom her mahr (bridal gift). So she is a wife and one of the Mothers of the Believers.
And his statement: : "Being married" means setting up the tent and the like. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a tent set up for him on that day, which he and his family would enter.
And his statement: : It means the nights and the days. The Arabs use "days" to mean days and nights, and they use "nights" to mean nights and days, except when there is a context, such as: "I fasted three days." Here, the night is definitely not included.
But: includes the nights.
And his statement: : It means that he invited them. And the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was among the most generous of people, indeed he was the most generous of people. So Anas would invite whoever he met to the wedding feast of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
: It means that it was a simple wedding feast, meaning light and easy, with no bread or meat. And regarding "no bread or meat," I think we do not doubt its grammar:
That "min" (from) is extra, and "khubz" (bread) is the subject of "kana" (was), and the original is "so there was in it bread or meat."
: Al-Ana' is the plural of nati', which are skins, so they are spread out to place the food on them.
And his statement: : The apparent meaning of the hadith is that each item was separate. So al-aqt is dried milk. Do you know it? And Fu'ad?
The student: I know it.

The Shaykh : Do you know it? Yes, this al-aqt is dried milk.
Ghee is well known, dates are well known.
Does the meaning imply that the dried milk is in a container, the ghee in a container, and the dates in a container, or that they are mixed?
The apparent meaning of the hadith allows that each item was separate, but the apparent and well-known practice among the Arabs is that they are mixed. The ghee, dried milk, and dates are mixed, and placed on the fire until they heat up, then eaten. It is one of the most delicious date-based dishes. And perhaps flour is used instead of the dried milk, and this is what is known among the urban dwellers. The urban dwellers do not know dried milk because it is rare among them, so they use flour instead of the dried milk, and it is called "hais," because it is stirred together. And it is called "qashdah" among our common people here. And the apparent thing is that the original is what?
Is there something called around this name?
The student: Qashta.
The student: Qashdah.

The Shaykh : Hm?
The student: Qashta. They call it qashdah and qashta.

The Shaykh : Qashta. No, this is Egyptian dialect as Hajjaj said, yes?
The student: ...

The Shaykh : Well, in any case, this was the wedding feast of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) for his wife Safiyyah.
And in the first [instance], it was two mudds of barley, half a sa'. So the wedding feast varies according to the circumstances.
