Hadith 1041
۞
3. Muhammad ibn Yahya Ahmad ibn Muhammad from af-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Yunus ibn Ya‘qub from ‘Isa ibn abu Mansur who has said the following
“I once was having food with abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and he (the Imam) kept placing Kabab before me. He (the Imam) then said, ’O ‘Isa, it is said that if you like to find out how much one loves his brother (in belief), see how much he eats from the food of his brother.’”
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ أَبِي مَنْصُورٍ قَالَ
أَكَلْتُ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَجَعَلَ يُلْقِي بَيْنَ يَدَيَّ الشِّوَاءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا عِيسَى إِنَّهُ يُقَالُ اعْتَبِرْ حُبَّ الرَّجُلِ بِأَكْلِهِ مِنْ طَعَامِ أَخِيهِ .
