It was
narrated from Sulaiman bin Buraidah that his father said:
“The
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to Bilal: ‘Come and eat, O Bilal.’
He
said: ‘I am fasting.’ The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: ‘We
are
eating our provision, but most of Bilal’s provision is in
Paradise. Do
you realise, O Bilal, that the bones of the fasting
person glorify
Allah and the angels pray for forgiveness for him so
long as food is
eaten in front of him?’”
