174. Abu Ali Al-Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbaar, from Al-Hassan Bin Ali, from Yunus Bin Yaqoub, from Suleyman Bin Khalid, from a worker of Muhammad Bin Rashid who said: I was present at the evening meal of Ja’far Bin Muhammad (asws) during the summer. A tray of bread was brought to him (asws), and a bowl of porridge and boiling meat. So he (asws) extended his hand towards it and found it to be hot. Then he (asws) raised his (asws) hand and said: ‘We (asws) seek Refuge with Allah (azwj) from the Fire, we (asws) seek Refuge with Allah (azwj) from the Fire. We are not strong enough (to bear) this, so how can we (bear) the Fire (of Hell)?’ And he (asws) went on repeating these words until it was possible to (touch) the bowl. So he (asws) placed his (asws) in it (the hot food in front of him (asws)), and we placed our hands in it (our portion) when it was possible. So he (asws) ate, and we ate with him (asws). Then the (food) from the food-mat was taken away. So he (asws) said: ‘O young boy, bring us something’. So he came with the dates on a platter. I extended my hand, and there were dates, so I said, ‘May Allah (azwj) Keep you (asws) well, this is the time (season) for the grapes and the apples’. He (asws) said: ‘these are the dates’. Then he (asws) said: ‘Take this away and bring us something’. So he came up with dates (another variety of dates). I extended my hand and said, ‘These are dates’. He (asws) said: ‘It is good’.
