وعن النعمان بن بشير، رضي الله عنهما، قال‏:‏ ذكر عمر ابن الخطاب، رضي الله عنه، ما أصاب الناس من الدنيا، فقال‏:‏ لقد رأيت رسول الله، صلى الله عليه وسلم، يظل اليوم يتلوى ما يجد من الدقل ما يملأ به بطنه‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ ‏الدقل‏ ‏ بفتح الدال المهملة والقاف‏:‏ ردئ التمر‏.‏

'Umar bin Al-Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) spoke at length regarding the worldly prosperity that people had achieved and said: "I saw that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) would pass his days in hunger and could not get even degraded dates to fill his stomach".[Muslim].
