Chapter 50 | The Excellence of Bread

عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) أَكْرِمُوا الْخُبْزَ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَ مَا إِكْرَامُهُ قَالَ إِذَا وُضِعَ لَمْ يُنْتَظَرْ بِهِ غَيْرُهُوَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ مِنْ كَرَامَتِهِ أَنْ لَا يُوطَأَ وَ لَا يُقْطَعَ .

5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ‘ Abd Allah ibn al-Mughirah from Talhah ibn Zayd from certain persons of our people who has said the following: “He (the Imam) has said that the Messenger of Allah, once said, ‘You must treat bread with reverence.’ It was asked, ‘What is its reverence?’ He (the Messenger of Allah) said, ‘When it is made available one must not wait for others.’ The Messenger of Allah has said that of treating it with reverence is not to step on it or cut it.’”
