Ash-Shama'il Al-Muhammadiyah — Hadith #47915

Al-Abbas ibn Muhammad al-Duri told us: Yunus ibn Muhammad told us: Fulayh ibn Sulayman told us, on the authority of Uthman ibn Abd al-Rahman, on the authority of Yaqub ibn Abi Yaqub, on the authority of Umm al-Mundhir, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered upon me, and with him was Ali, and we had some hanging dates. She said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) began to eat, and Ali was with him. He was eating, so the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said to Ali: “Stop it, Ali, for you are a camel.” She said: So Ali sat down, and the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, was eating. She said: So I made them chard and barley, and the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said to Ali: “Take some of this, for this is more suitable for you.”
