وحَدَّثَنِي سَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ أُمَّ مَالِكٍ، كَانَتْ تُهْدِي لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي عُكَّةٍ لَهَا سَمْنًا، فَيَأْتِيهَا بَنُوهَا فَيَسْأَلُونَ الْأُدْمَ، وَلَيْسَ عِنْدَهُمْ شَيْءٌ، فَتَعْمِدُ إِلَى الَّذِي كَانَتْ تُهْدِي فِيهِ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَتَجِدُ فِيهِ سَمْنًا، فَمَا زَالَ يُقِيمُ لَهَا أُدْمَ بَيْتِهَا حَتَّى عَصَرَتْهُ، فَأَتَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «عَصَرْتِيهَا؟» قَالَتْ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ «لَوْ تَرَكْتِيهَا مَا زَالَ قَائِمًا».

Umm Malik رضی اللہ عنہا used to send clarified butter in a small skin to the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌). Her sons would come to her and ask for seasoning when they had nothing with them (in the form of condiments) and she would go to that (skin) in which she offered (clarified butter) to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌), and she would find in that clarified butter and it kept providing her with seasoning for her household until she had (completely) squeezed it. She came to Allah's Apostle ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) and (informed him about it). Thereupon, he (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: Did you squeeze it? She said: Yes. Thereupon he said: If you had left it in that very state, it would have kept on providing you (the clarified butter) on end.
