barley. That person, his wife and his guest kept on eating that barley (for a long time) till one day he weighed that barley. Then he came into the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, he صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated: If you had not weighed it, you would have kept on consuming it and it would have remained in the same state (forever). (Sahih Muslim, pp. 963, Hadees 5946)

2.   Famous blessed companion Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رَضِىَ اللهُ عَـنْهُ states: I appeared in the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم with some dates and humbly requested, ‘O Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم please make Du’a for blessing in these dates’. He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم after gathering the dates made Du’a for blessing and said, ‘Keep them in your bag and when you want, keep putting your hand in the bag and taking them out but never empty the bag completely by shaking the dates out.’ Therefore, Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رَضِىَ اللهُ عَـنْهُ himself used to eat from these dates, he رَضِىَ اللهُ عَـنْهُ used to give it to people and used to give it in the path of Allah Almighty in Maunds  [1 Maund = about 37 kgs]. He رَضِىَ اللهُ عَـنْهُ would always use to tie this bag on his back till that bag after being cut, dropped from his back on the day of martyrdom of Ameer-ul-Mumineen Sayyiduna ‘Usman-e-Ghani رَضِىَ اللهُ عَـنْهُ. (Tirmizi, vol. 5, pp. 454, Hadees 3865)

3.   There was a nanny goat in the possession of Sayyidatuna Umm-e-Sulaym رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا. She رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا made ghee from its milk and gathered it in a leather bag, when the leather bag was full, she رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا sent it through the        maid to the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم so that he صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم may make curry from it. He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: Return her leather bag after emptying it. The empty leather bag reached home and when Sayyidatuna Umm-e-Sulaym رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا saw it, it took her by surprise that the leather bag was full as it was [before] and ghee was also dripping from it. She رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا asked the maid: Didn’t you take the leather bag to the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم? She replied: I did exactly as you told; if you want, you can go and verify yourself. Sayyidatuna Umm-e-Sulaym رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهَا appeared in the blessed court of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and humbly requested: I sent you a leather bag containing ghee. I swear by the One Who has sent you with guidance
