حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَاتِمُ بْنُ سِيَاهٍ الْمَرْوَزِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ كُنَّا نَدْعُو جَعْفَرَ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رضى الله عنه أَبَا الْمَسَاكِينِ فَكُنَّا إِذَا أَتَيْنَاهُ قَرَّبْنَا إِلَيْهِ مَا حَضَرَ فَأَتَيْنَاهُ يَوْمًا فَلَمْ يَجِدْ عِنْدَهُ شَيْئًا فَأَخْرَجَ جَرَّةً مِنْ عَسَلٍ فَكَسَرَهَا فَجَعَلْنَا نَلْعَقُ مِنْهَا . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ .
Abu Ahmad Hatim ibn Siyah al-Marwazi narrated to us: ‘Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us: Ma‘mar informed us, from Ibn ‘Ajlan, from Yazid ibn Qusayt, from Abu Salamah, from Abu Hurayrah, who said: We used to call Ja‘far ibn Abi Talib, may Allah be pleased with him, ‘the Father of the Poor.’ Whenever we visited him, we would bring him whatever was available. One day we came to him and he had nothing with him, so he brought out a jar of honey, broke it open, and we began licking from it. Abu ‘Isa said: This hadith is hasan gharib through the narration of Abu Salamah from Abu Hurayrah.
