Simak bin Harb reported: I heard Nu'man deliver an address in which he said that (Hadrat) Umar made a mention of what had fallen to the lot of people out of the material world and he said: I saw Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) spend the whole day being upset because of hunger and he could not get even an inferior quality of dates with which he could fill his belly.
