2. It is narrated from the narrator of the above Hadith from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn abu Hamzah who has said the following
“I heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), say in answer to a question, ‘Feed three people or more if you like; however, you have already fulfilled what you should have done for the day.’”
2ـ وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ فِي السُّؤَّالِ أَطْعِمُوا ثَلاثَةً إِنْ شِئْتُمْ أَنْ تَزْدَادُوا فَازْدَادُوا وَإِلاَّ فَقَدْ أَدَّيْتُمْ حَقَّ يَوْمِكُمْ.
