Kutoka kwa Abu Hurairah (Radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake) or may be Abu Sa'id Al- Khudri (Radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake) reported: "On the day of the battle of Tabuk, the Waislamu were hard pressed by hunger and they asked Mjumbe wa Allah (Rehema na amani za Allah ziwe juu yake): "Ewe Mjumbe wa Allah, grant us permission to slaughter our camels to eat and use their fat". He (ﷺ) accorded permission. On this 'Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) came and said: "Ewe Mjumbe wa Allah, if it is done, we shall suffer from lack of transportation. I suggest you pool together whatever has been left and supplicate Allah to bless it." Allah will bestow His Blessing upon it. Mjumbe wa Allah (Rehema na amani za Allah ziwe juu yake) agreed and called for leather mat and had it spread out, and asked people to bring the provisions left over. They started doing it. One brought a handful of corn, another brought a handful of dates, a third brought a piece of bread; thus some provisions were collected on the mat. Mjumbe wa Allah (Rehema na amani za Allah ziwe juu yake) invoked blessings, and then said, "Now take it up in your vessels". Everyone filled his vessel with food, so that there was not left a single empty vessel in the whole camp. All of them ate to their fill and there was still some left over. Mjumbe wa Allah (Rehema na amani za Allah ziwe juu yake) said, "Any slave who meets Allah, testifying there is no true god except Allah, and that I am His Messenger, without entertaining any doubt about these (two fundamentals), will not be banished from entering Jannah."."
