Sahih al-Bukhari 2490 (Book 47, Hadith 8) #2385
Eating Two Dates Together Without Permission

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) forbidding people from eating two dates together at a time in a gathering without permission from their companion.

Narrated Jabala: "While at Medina we were struck with famine. Ibn Az-Zubair used to provide us with dates as our food. Ibn 'Umar used to pass by us and say, "Don't eat two dates together at a time as the Prophet has forbidden eating two dates together at a time (in a gathering) unless one takes the permission of one's companion brother".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ جَبَلَةَ، قَالَ كُنَّا بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَأَصَابَتْنَا سَنَةٌ، فَكَانَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ يَرْزُقُنَا التَّمْرَ، وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ يَمُرُّ بِنَا فَيَقُولُ لاَ تَقْرُنُوا فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ نَهَى عَنِ الإِقْرَانِ، إِلاَّ أَنْ يَسْتَأْذِنَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْكُمْ أَخَاهُ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is narrated by Jabala and it talks about the Prophet Muhammad's teachings on eating two dates together at a time in a gathering. He said that it was forbidden to do so unless one takes permission of their companion brother. This teaches us to be mindful of our actions and to always ask for permission before doing something, even if it seems small or insignificant. It also teaches us to be considerate of others and respect their wishes when we are in a group setting. We should always think twice before taking any action that could affect someone else negatively, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem.
