It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to sit on the ground, eat while sitting on the ground, milk the goat, and accept the invitation of a slave to eat barley bread.

Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to ride a donkey, mend his own shoes, and patch his own shirt, and he used to say: "Whoever turns away from my Sunnah is not from me."
