Hadith 33:75

'Affan narrated to us, he said: Abu 'Awanah narrated to us, he said: Habib ibn Abi 'Amrah narrated to us, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr, from Ibn 'Abbas, who said: "Moses truly said: 'My Lord, indeed I am, for whatever good You would send down to me, in need,' and he was the most noble of His creation to Him. He was indeed in need of half a date, and hunger had indeed afflicted him until his stomach stuck to his back."

حدثنا عفان قال حدثنا أبو عوانة قال حدثنا حبيب بن أبي عمرة عن سعيد بن جبير عن بن عباس قال لقد قال موسى رب إني لما أنزلت إلي من خير فقير وهو أكرم خلقه عليه ولقد كان افتقر إلى شق تمرة ولقد أصابه الجوع حتى لزق بطنه بظهره
