Sahih Muslim 2006b (Book 36, Hadith 108) #12338
Hospitality and Gratitude

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a man who was invited to a meal and was given something to drink after he had eaten.

Sahl reported that Abu Usaid al-Sa'idi came to Allah's Messenger ; the rest of the hadith is the same, but he did not mention this: when he had eaten (the food) she gave him this to drink".
وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ - عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَهْلاً، يَقُولُ أَتَى أَبُو أُسَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيُّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَدَعَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ بِمِثْلِهِ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ فَلَمَّا أَكَلَ سَقَتْهُ إِيَّاهُ
