Question

Is this Hadith authentic?

Masruq (rahimahullah) said:

I entered upon ‘Aishah (radiyallahu ‘anha) and she invited me to eat. She said: ‘Whenever I eat my fill of food I want to cry and begin crying.’ He said: ‘Why?’ She said: ‘I remember the circumstances under which the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) parted from the world. By Allah! He would not eat his fill of bread and meat twice in a day.'”

 

Answer

Imam Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration and has declared it sound (hasan).

The narration is as follows:

Masruq (rahimahullah) said: “I entered upon ‘Aishah (radiyallahu ‘anha) and she invited me to eat. She said: ‘Whenever I eat my fill of food I want to cry and I begin to cry.’ Masruq asked, ‘Why?’ Sayyidah ‘Aishah (radiyallahu ‘anha) replied, said: ‘I remember the circumstances under which Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) departed from this world. By Allah! He would not eat his fill of bread and meat twice in a day.”

(Sunan Tirmidhi, Hadith: 2356. Also see: Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 2974)

 

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

سنن الترمذي:
(٢٣٥٦) – حدثنا أحمد بن منيع قال: حدثنا عباد بن عباد المهلبي، عن مجالد، عن الشعبي، عن مسروق، قال: دخلت على عائشة، فدعت لي بطعام، وقالت: «ما أشبع من طعام فأشاء أن أبكي إلا بكيت» قال: قلت لم؟ قالت: «أذكر الحال التي فارق عليها رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم الدنيا. والله، ما شبع من خبز ولحم مرتين في يوم».
قال أبو عيسى: هذا حديث حسن.

(٢٩٧٤) – حدثني أبو الطاهر أحمد، أخبرنا عبد الله بن وهب، أخبرني أبو صخر، عن يزيد بن عبد الله بن قسيط، ح وحدثني هارون بن سعيد، حدثنا ابن وهب، أخبرني أبو صخر، عن ابن قسيط، عن عروة بن الزبير، عن عائشة زوج النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، قالت: «لقد مات رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وما شبع من خبز، وزيت في يوم واحد مرتين»
