It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we prepared food for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in an earthen pot. I brought that vessel and placed it before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looked into it and said: I thought there would be meat in it. I went and mentioned this to my family, and they slaughtered a goat for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
