Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Busr Salmi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) came with my father. He stayed there. Food, hais, sattu, and dates were presented to him. Then a drink was presented to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so he passed it to the person on his right. The narrator states, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would eat dates and place the pit between his index and middle finger, then he would throw it away. Then he prayed for mercy for those people and supplicated: "O Allah! Bless for them what You have provided for them, forgive them, and have mercy on them."
