Summary
The story is authentic because Imam Muslim narrated it in his Sahih from Abu Hurairah. In it, the Prophet SAW met Abu Bakr and Umar, who had left their homes out of hunger, and they went to an Ansari companion who served them dates. The hadith shows the asceticism of the Prophet SAW and his companions towards worldly pleasures, and it is not evidence that the poor are superior to the rich.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, kisah tersebut adalah sahih kerana ia ada diriwayatkan oleh Imam Muslim di dalam kitab sahihnya.
