Sunan Abi Dawud 1716

Jafar ibn Musafir al-Tinnisi narrated to us; Ibn Abi Fudayk narrated to us; Musa ibn Yaqub al-Zamai narrated to us, from Abu Hazim, from Sahl ibn Sad, who reported to him that Ali ibn Abi Talib entered upon Fatimah while Hasan and Husayn were crying. He asked what was making them cry. She said: Hunger. Ali went out and found a dinar in the market. He came to Fatimah and told her. She said: Go to so-and-so, the Jewish man, and get some flour. Ali went to the man and bought flour with the dinar. The Jewish man said: Are you the son-in-law of the one who claims to be the Messenger of Allah? He replied: Yes. The man said: Take your dinar back; the flour is yours. Ali left and went to Fatimah and told her. She said: Go to the butcher and get us one dirham's worth of meat. He went and pledged the dinar for meat worth one dirham, then brought it home. She kneaded the dough, lit the oven, baked the bread, and sent for her father. He came to them. She said: Messenger of Allah, I will tell you what happened; if you consider it lawful for us, we will eat it, and you may eat with us. He said: Eat, saying Allah's name. They began eating. While they were still there, a young man came calling upon Allah and Islam for the return of the dinar. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had him brought and asked him. He said: I dropped it in the market. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Ali, go to the butcher and tell him that the Messenger of Allah says: Send me the dinar, and I will pay your dirham. The butcher sent it, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave it to the man.
