Abdullah b. Busr reported: Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to my father and we brought to him a meal and a preparation from dates, cheese and butter. He ate out of that. He was then given dates which he ate, putting the stones between his fingers and holding his forefinger and middle finger together - Shu'bah said: I think we learn from this that one may hold the date stones between two fingers, In shaAllah.

Thereupon he said: O Allah. bless them in what You have provided them as a sustenance; and forgive them and have mercy upon them.
