“If I was invited for a shoulder or shin [of an animal], I would have accepted.”
The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, was a humble guest and he would accept an invitation even it was something small.
He, sallalaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said:
“If I was invited for a shoulder or shin [of an animal], I would have accepted.”
Ibn Hajar said: “He, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, mentioned both the portions (the considerable choice and the lowly choice), since he especially liked the shoulder, whereas the shin is considered of no value.”
