حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ يُونُسَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ الْحَسَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَعْقِلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بَيْنَمَا هُوَ يَتَغَدَّى،‏‏‏‏ إِذْ سَقَطَتْ مِنْهُ لُقْمَةٌ،‏‏‏‏ فَتَنَاوَلَهَا فَأَمَاطَ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَذًى فَأَكَلَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَغَ امَزَ بِهِ الدَّهَاقِينُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقِيلَ:‏‏‏‏ أَصْلَحَ اللَّهُ الْأَمِيرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ الدَّهَاقِينَ يَتَغَامَزُونَ مِنْ أَخْذِكَ اللُّقْمَةَ وَبَيْنَ يَدَيْكَ هَذَا الطَّعَامُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ لِأَدَعَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِهَذِهِ الْأَعَاجِمِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ إِنَّا كُنَّا نَأْمُرُ أَحَدُنَا،‏‏‏‏ إِذَا سَقَطَتْ لُقْمَتُهُ،‏‏‏‏ أَنْ يَأْخُذَهَا فَيُمِيطَ مَا كَانَ فِيهَا مِنْ أَذًى وَيَأْكُلَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَا يَدَعَهَا لِلشَّيْطَانِ .

“While (he) was eating lunch, a morsel of food fell on the floor. He picked it up, removed whatever dirt had gotten onto it, and ate it. The villagers and farmers winked at one another (finding it odd) and it was said: ‘May Allah help the chief! These villagers and farmers are winking at one another because you picked up a morsel (from the ground) when you have this food in front of you.’ He said: ‘I am not going to give up something I heard from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) for these non-Arabs. We were told, if one of us dropped a morsel of food, to pick it up, remove whatever dirt was on it, and eat it, and not to leave it for Satan.’”

It was narrated from Hasan about Ma’qil bin Yasar رضی اللہ عنہ
