Hadith of Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Bakr (RA)
حديث عبد الرحمن بن أبي بكر (1) رضي الله عنه
Hadith 12:12
'Affan narrated to us, Mu'tamir ibn Sulayman narrated to us, he said: I heard my father saying: Abu 'Uthman narrated to us, that 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Bakr narrated to him, that the People of the Suffah were poor people, and that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever has food for two, let him take a third, and whoever has food for four, let him take a fifth or a sixth," or as he said. And Abu Bakr came with three, and the Prophet of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went with ten. He said: So it was me, my father, and my mother—and I do not know if he said: my wife—and a servant between our house and the house of Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him).
حدثنا عفان، حدثنا معتمر بن سليمان، قال: سمعت أبي، يقول: حدثنا أبو عثمان، أنه حدثه عبد الرحمن بن أبي بكر، أن أصحاب الصفة، كانوا أناسا فقراء، وأن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: " من كان عنده طعام اثنين فليذهب بثلاثة، ومن كان عنده طعام أربعة فليذهب بخامس بسادس " أو كما قال ، وإن أبا بكر جاء بثلاثة، وانطلق نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بعشرة، قال: فهو أنا وأبي وأمي - ولا أدري هل قال: امرأتي - وخادم بين بيتنا وبيت أبي بكر رضي الله تعالى عنه
