Riyad as-Salihin 1267 (Book 8, Hadith 277) #37756
Providing Food to Fasters

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) praised Sa'd bin 'Ubadah (May Allah be pleased with him) for providing food to those who were fasting.

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet came to visit Sa'd bin 'Ubadah (May Allah be pleased with him) who presented bread and olive oil to him. The Prophet ate it and said, "The observers of fast have broken their fast with you (this is the literal translation, but the meaning is: 'May Allah reward you for providing a fasting people with food to break their fast'); the pious people have eat your food and the angels invoked blessings on you". Abu Dawud.
وعن أنس رضي الله عنه أن النبي جاء إلى سعد بن عبادة رضي الله عنه فجاء بخبز وزيت، فأكل ثم قال النبي ‏:‏ ‏ "‏أفطر عندكم الصائمون وأكل طعامكم الأبرار وصلت عليكم الملائكة‏"‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو داود بإسناد صحيح‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏
