Al-Kāfi - The Book of Food

Chapter: Eating Pieces of Food that Fall on the Table-spread َيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْخَشَّابِ عَنِ ابْنِ بَقَّاحٍ عَنْ عَ٠َيْعٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) ٠َنْ وَجَدَ كِسْرَةً فَأَكَلَهَا كَانَتْ لَهُ حَسَنَةٌ وَ ٠َنْ وَجَدَهَا فِي قَذِرٍ فَغَسَلَهَا ثُ٠َّ رَفَعَهَا كَانَتْ لَهُ سَبْعُونَ حَسَنَةً.

‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, “If one finds pieces of food and eats them it is one good deed, and if one finds them in unclean places, then washes them, then picks them up, he will have seventy good deeds recorded for him.’”” ضعيف - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (2/117))
