It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) took half a mudd of barley, then picked up a leather container for ghee, in which there was a little ghee. She made a kind of porridge from it, then sent me to invite the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When I reached the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he was sitting among the Companions. I said: Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) has sent me; she is inviting you to eat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Me and these companions of mine as well? Thus, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions came. I went home and said to Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him): The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his Companions are coming. Sayyiduna Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) went out and began to walk alongside the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! This is only porridge, which Umm Sulaym has prepared from half a mudd of barley (this amount is not enough for so many people to eat). In any case, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) entered, and the food was presented before him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) placed his blessed hand in it and said: Call in ten people. So ten people came and ate to their fill, then another ten came, and they too ate to their fill, then another ten came, then another ten came, until forty people ate to their fill, and the food remained as it was, just as before, then we, the household, ate it as well.
