A few days passed like this, until the hunger became very difficult to manage.<\/p>\n<p>At that time, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) came to the home of his beloved daughter, Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha), and asked her if she had any food. However, Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) and her family were also undergoing hunger and did not have any food. Hearing that she did not have any food at home, Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) departed.<\/p>\n<p>A few moments later, one of Hazrat Faatimah\u2019s (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) neighbours sent her two pieces of bread and a piece of meat. Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) placed the bread and meat in a bowl and covered it, and then sent one of her sons, Hazrat Hasan or Hazrat Husain (radhiyallahu \u2018anhuma), to call Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam). She did not want to eat this food without her father, knowing that he was undergoing starvation. This was the special heart that Allah Ta\u2018ala had blessed Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) with, that despite she and her family also being hungry, they did not want to eat this food without Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam).<\/p>\n<p>When Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) came, she said to him, \u201cAllah Ta\u2018ala sent some food, and I kept this food to eat with you.\u201d She then brought the bowl to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam), and on removing the cover, she was surprised to find that the bowl no longer contained just two pieces of bread and one piece of meat \u2013 rather the entire bowl was now filled with meat and bread. This was a special blessing that Allah Ta\u2018ala sent to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) and his family.<\/p>\n<p>Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) says: When I saw this, I was astonished and realised that this was special barakah which had come from Allah Ta\u2018ala. I praised Allah Ta\u2018ala, recited durood shareef, and presented the food to Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam).<\/p>\n<p>When Rasulullah (sallallahu \u2018alaihi wasallam) saw the food, he praised Allah Ta\u2018ala and asked, \u201cO my beloved daughter! Where did you get this food from?\u201d Hazrat Faatimah (radhiyallahu \u2018anha) replied, \u201cO my beloved father! This food came from Allah!\u201d She then recited the following verse of the Qur\u2019aan Majeed:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" dir=\"RTL\" style=\"text-align: center; font-family: quran; font-size: 16pt;\">\u0627\u0650\u0646\u0651\u064e \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0651\u0670\u06c1\u064e \u06cc\u064e\u0631\u06e1\u0632\u064f\u0642\u064f \u0645\u064e\u0646\u06e1 \u06cc\u0651\u064e\u0634\u064e\u0627\u0653\u0621\u064f \u0628\u0650\u063a\u064e\u06cc\u06e1\u0631\u0650 \u062d\u0650\u0633\u064e\u0627\u0628\u064d \ufd3f\u06f3\u06f7\ufd3e<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Undoubtedly, Allah Ta\u2018ala grants sustenance to whomsoever He wishes without any measure.
