The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) loved to gift food to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), as narrated by Anas ibn Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) in this Hadith, where he said: "I was an adolescent boy," that is, a youth approaching puberty "and I hunted a hare and I roasted it, and Abu Talhah," who was the son of `Abdullah and the husband of Anas’ mother (may Allah be pleased with him), "sent its haunch through me to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)." That is, the hindquarters, specifically its thighs. The narration continues: "so I brought it to him," that is Anas took it to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) - "and he accepted it." That is, he accepted the hare meat and did not say anything against it, affirming that it is permissible to eat.The Hadith illustrates the eagerness of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) to gift the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)..
