Abdulrahman Bin Abd Bakr reported: There came to our house some guests. It was a common practice with my father to go and talk to Allah Messenger ﷺ during the night. While going he said: Abdulrahman entertain the guests. When it was evening we served the food to them; but they refused saying: So long as the owner of the house does not come and join us; we would not take the meal. I said to them: He Abd Bakr is a stern person; and if you would not do that if you do not take the food. I fear; I may be harmed by him; but they refused. As he my father came; the first thing he asked was: Have you served the guests? They the peopleof the household said: We have not served them sofar. He said: Did I not command Abdulrahman to do this ? He Abdulrahman said: I slunk away and kept myself away by that time. He again said: O stupid fellow; I ask you on oath that In case you hear my voice you come to me. I came and said: By Allah; there is no fault of mine. These are your guests; you may ask them. I provided them with food but they refused to eat until you came. He said to them: Why is it that you did not accept our food? By Allah; I shall not even take food tonight as you have not taken. They said: By Allah; we would not take until you join us. Thereupon he Abu Bakr said: I have never seen a more unfortunate night than this. Woe be to thee! that you do not accept from us food prepared for you. He again said: What I did first that is the taking of vow for not eating the food was prompted by the Satan. Bring the food. The food was brought; and he ate by reciting the name of Allah and they also ate; and when it was morning he came to Allah Apostle ﷺ and said: Allah Messenger; their oath that of the guests came to be true; but mine was not true; and after that he informed him of the whole incident. He said: Your oath came to be the most true and you are the best of them. He the narrator said. I do not know whether he made an atonement for it.
