Abundance Through Sharing

SUMMARY: The food of two people is enough for three, and the food of three people is enough for four.

Narrated Abu Hurairah: That the Messenger of Allah said: "The food of two is sufficient for three, and the food of three is sufficient for four". He said: There are narrations on this topic from Jabir, and Ibn 'Umar. Abu 'Eisa said: This Hadith is Hasan Sahih.
حَدَّثَنَا الأَنْصَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ طَعَامُ الاِثْنَيْنِ كَافِي الثَّلاَثَةِ وَطَعَامُ الثَّلاَثَةِ كَافِي الأَرْبَعَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ جَابِرٍ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that sharing what we have with others can lead to abundance. It encourages us to be generous and not be stingy with our resources. We should share what we have with those who are in need, as it will bring blessings into our lives. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that the food of two people is enough for three, and the food of three people is enough for four. This means that if we share what we have, it will go a long way in providing sustenance to many more than just ourselves. It also shows us how important it is to be mindful about how much we consume so that there can be more left over to share with others.
