31-123 According to the same documentation, Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) said, “I was with the Prophet (S) digging a ditch when (the Blessed Lady) Fatima (a.s.) came with a piece of bread for the Prophet (S). The Prophet asked her, “Where is this piece of bread from?” She (a.s.) replied, “I baked a loaf of bread for Al-Hassan and Al-Husayn and brought you a piece of it.” The Prophet (S) said, “This is the first piece of bread that has reached your father’s mouth after three nights and days.”
