كَانَ عَبَّادٌ الْبَصْرِيُّ عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَأْكُلُ فَوَضَعَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَدَهُ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبَّادٌ أَصْلَحَكَ اللَّهُ أَ مَا تَعْلَمُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) نَهَى عَنْ هَذَا فَرَفَعَ يَدَهُ فَأَكَلَ ثُمَّ أَعَادَهَا أَيْضاً فَقَالَ لَهُ أَيْضاً فَرَفَعَهَا ثُمَّ أَكَلَ فَأَعَادَهَا فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبَّادٌ أَيْضاً فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) عَنْ هَذَا قَطُّ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Abu Ismail Al Basry, from Al Fuzayl Bin Yasaar who said, ‘Abbad Al-Basry was in the presence of Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, eating. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> placed his<sup>asws</sup> hand upon the ground. So Abbad said to him<sup>asws</sup>, ‘May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Keep you<sup>asws</sup> well! Do you<sup>asws</sup> not know that Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> forbade from this?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> raised his<sup>asws</sup> hand, so he<sup>asws</sup> ate. Then he<sup>asws</sup> repeated it again. So he said to him<sup>asws</sup> again. So he<sup>asws</sup> raised it, then ate. So he<sup>asws</sup> repeated it. So Abbad said to him again. So Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘No, by Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> did not forbid from this at all’.
