It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that once barley bread and old oil were brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the coat of mail of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was mortgaged with a Jew in Madinah Munawwarah; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had taken some barley from him for a few months. And one day I heard him saying that this evening, there is not even a sa’ of grain or wheat with the family of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), and at that time the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had nine pure wives.
