Sahih al-Bukhari #3431
Virtues and Merits of the Prophet (pbuh) and his Companions
The companions of Suffa were poor people. The Prophet (ﷺ) once said, "Whoever has food enough for
two persons, should take a third one (from among them), and whoever has food enough for four
persons, should take a fifth or a sixth (or said something similar)." Abu Bakr brought three persons
while the Prophet (ﷺ) took ten. And Abu Bakr with his three family member (who were I, my father and
my mother) (the sub-narrator is in doubt whether `Abdur-Rahman said, "My wife and my servant who
was common for both my house and Abu Bakr's house.") Abu Bakr took his supper with the Prophet (ﷺ)
and stayed there till he offered the `Isha' prayers. He returned and stayed till Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took his
supper.
After a part of the night had passed, he returned to his house. His wife said to him, "What has detained
you from your guests?" He said, "Have you served supper to them?" She said, "They refused to take
supper until you come. They (i.e. some members of the household) presented the meal to them but
they refused (to eat)" I went to hide myself and he said, "O Ghunthar!" He invoked Allah to cause my
ears to be cut and he rebuked me. He then said (to them): Please eat!" and added, I will never eat the
meal." By Allah, whenever we took a handful of the meal, the meal grew from underneath more than
that handful till everybody ate to his satisfaction; yet the remaining food was more than the original
meal. Abu Bakr saw that the food was as much or more than the original amount. He called his wife,
"O sister of Bani Firas!" She said, "O pleasure of my eyes. The food has been tripled in quantity."
Abu Bakr then started eating thereof and said, "It (i.e. my oath not to eat) was because of Sa all." He
took a handful from it, and carried the rest to the Prophet. So that food was with the Prophet (ﷺ) . There
was a treaty between us and some people, and when the period of that treaty had elapsed, he divided
US into twelve groups, each being headed by a man. Allah knows how many men were under the
command of each leader. Anyhow, the Prophet (ﷺ) surely sent a leader with each group. Then all of them
ate of that meal.

فَمَن لَّمْ يَجِدْ فَصِيَامُ شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتَابِعَيْنِ مِن قَبْلِ أَن يَتَمَآسَّا ۖ فَمَن لَّمْ يَسْتَطِعْ فَإِطْعَامُ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِينًۭا ۚ ذَٰلِكَ لِتُؤْمِنُوا۟ بِٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ ۚ وَتِلْكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَلِلْكَٰفِرِينَ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ
And he who does not find [a slave] - then a fast for two months consecutively before they touch one another; and he who is unable - then the feeding of sixty poor persons. That is for you to believe [completely] in Allah and His Messenger; and those are the limits [set by] Allah. And for the disbelievers is a painful punishment.

مَّآ أَفَآءَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِۦ مِنْ أَهْلِ ٱلْقُرَىٰ فَلِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ وَلِذِى ٱلْقُرْبَىٰ وَٱلْيَتَٰمَىٰ وَٱلْمَسَٰكِينِ وَٱبْنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ كَىْ لَا يَكُونَ دُولَةًۢ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَغْنِيَآءِ مِنكُمْ ۚ وَمَآ ءَاتَىٰكُمُ ٱلرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَىٰكُمْ عَنْهُ فَٱنتَهُوا۟ ۚ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ ۖ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ شَدِيدُ ٱلْعِقَابِ
And what Allah restored to His Messenger from the people of the towns - it is for Allah and for the Messenger and for [his] near relatives and orphans and the [stranded] traveler - so that it will not be a perpetual distribution among the rich from among you. And whatever the Messenger has given you - take; and what he has forbidden you - refrain from. And fear Allah; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty.

For the poor emigrants who were expelled from their homes and their properties, seeking bounty from Allah and [His] approval and supporting Allah and His Messenger, [there is also a share]. Those are the truthful.

O you who have believed, do not enter the houses of the Prophet except when you are permitted for a meal, without awaiting its readiness. But when you are invited, then enter; and when you have eaten, disperse without seeking to remain for conversation. Indeed, that [behavior] was troubling the Prophet, and he is shy of [dismissing] you. But Allah is not shy of the truth. And when you ask [his wives] for something, ask them from behind a partition. That is purer for your hearts and their hearts. And it is not [conceivable or lawful] for you to harm the Messenger of Allah or to marry his wives after him, ever. Indeed, that would be in the sight of Allah an enormity.
