Bab Ma Ja'a Fi Da'wat Abi Ayyub al-Ansari Radhi Allahu 'Anhu

And what appeared in his food with the blessing of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, as signs of Prophethood.

Abu Al-Hasan 'Ali ibn Muhammad al-Muqri informed us that Al-Hasan ibn Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Asfaryani narrated to us, who narrated to us Yusuf ibn Ya'qub al-Qadi, who narrated to us Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr, who narrated to us 'Abd al-'Ala ibn 'Abd al-'Ala from Al-Jurayri from Abu Al-Ward from Abu Muhammad al-Hadrami from Abu Ayyub who said: "I prepared food for the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and for Abu Bakr as much as would suffice both of them. So, I brought it to them. The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: 'Go and invite thirty nobles from the Ansar.' That was burdensome for me, and I said: 'I do not have anything to add to it,' as if I had forgotten. He said: 'Go and invite thirty nobles from the Ansar.' So, I invited them, and they came. Then he said: 'Serve the food to them.' They ate until they were full, then testified that he was the Messenger of Allah and pledged allegiance to him before leaving. Then he said: 'Invite sixty more.' And he mentioned the hadith.

He ate from that food with a total of one hundred and eighty men, all of them from the Ansar.
