حدثنا الحسن بن واقع، قال: حدثنا ضمرة، عن إبراهيم بن ابي عبلة، قال: مرضت امراتي، فكنت اجيء إلى ام الدرداء، فتقول لي: كيف اهلك؟ فاقول لها: مرضى، فتدعو لي بطعام، فآكل، ثم عدت ففعلت ذلك، فجئتها مرة، فقالت: كيف؟ قلت: قد تماثلوا، فقالت: إنما كنت ادعو لك بطعام ان كنت تخبرنا عن اهلك انهم مرضى، فاما إذ تماثلوا فلا ندعو لك بشيء.
It is narrated from Ibrahim bin Abi Ablah (may Allah have mercy on him), he said: My wife fell ill, so I used to visit Sayyidah Umm Darda (may Allah be pleased with her), and she would ask me: How is your wife? I would say to her: She is still ill, so she would have food brought for me and I would eat. Then I would come again and she would do the same. Once I came to her and, as usual, she asked: How is your wife? I said: She is much better. She said: When you used to tell me that your wife was ill, I would have food brought for you, but now since she is better (and can cook food), we will not have anything brought for you.
