حَدَّثَنَا سَهْلُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَبِي مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ شَكَّ الْأَعْمَشُ قَالَ لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ أَصَابَ النَّاسَ مَجَاعَةٌ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ أَذِنْتَ لَنَا فَنَحَرْنَا نَوَاضِحَنَا فَأَكَلْنَا وَادَّهَنَّا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ افْعَلُوا قَالَ فَجَاءَ عُمَرُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ قَلَّ الظَّهْرُ وَلَكِنْ ادْعُهُمْ بِفَضْلِ أَزْوَادِهِمْ ثُمَّ ادْعُ اللَّهَ لَهُمْ عَلَيْهَا بِالْبَرَكَةِ لَعَلَّ اللَّهَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَدَعَا بِنِطَعٍ فَبَسَطَهُ ثُمَّ دَعَا بِفَضْلِ أَزْوَادِهِمْ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَجِيءُ بِكَفِّ ذُرَةٍ قَالَ وَيَجِيءُ الْآخَرُ بِكَفِّ تَمْرٍ قَالَ وَيَجِيءُ الْآخَرُ بِكِسْرَةٍ حَتَّى اجْتَمَعَ عَلَى النِّطَعِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ يَسِيرٌ قَالَ فَدَعَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ بِالْبَرَكَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ خُذُوا فِي أَوْعِيَتِكُمْ قَالَ فَأَخَذُوا فِي أَوْعِيَتِهِمْ حَتَّى مَا تَرَكُوا فِي الْعَسْكَرِ وِعَاءً إِلَّا مَلَئُوهُ قَالَ فَأَكَلُوا حَتَّى شَبِعُوا وَفَضَلَتْ فَضْلَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنِّي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَا يَلْقَى اللَّهَ بِهِمَا عَبْدٌ غَيْرَ شَاكٍّ فَيُحْجَبَ عَنْ الْجَنَّةِ!.

It was narrated that Abu Hurairah, or Abu Sa'eed - Al-A'mash was not sure - said: "On the day of the battle of Tabuk, the people became hungry and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, why don't you give us permission to slaughter our camels, and we will eat them and make use of their fat.' The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Do that.' Then 'Umar came and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, if you do that we will have few mounts. Rather call them to bring whatever provisions they have left, then pray to Allah over them, asking Him to bless them for them, and perhaps Allah will bless them.' The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'Yes.' He called for a leather mat and spread it out, then he called for their leftover provisions . One man brought a handful of corn, another brought a handful of dates, and another brought a piece of bread, until a little food had been collected on the leather mat. Then the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) prayed for blessing for it, then he said: 'Put it in your vessels.' They filled their vessels until there was no vessel left in the camp that was not filled. They ate until they were full, and there was plenty left over. Then the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: 'I bear witness that none has the right to be worshiped but Allah and that I am the Messenger of Allah. No one who meets Allah (believing) in them and not doubting them will be kept away from Paradise."'
