Sunan Ibn Majah 3338 (Book 29, Hadith 88) #32692
Remembering the Prophet's Sacrifice

SUMMARY: Abu Hurairah was brought some of the first thin loaves of bread and he wept, remembering that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) never saw such a thing with his own eyes.

It was narrated from Ibn 'Ata that his father said: "Abu Hurairah visited his people, meaning, a village" – I (one of the narrators) think he said: "Yuna" – "And they brought him some of the first thin loaves of bread. He wept and said: 'The Messenger of Allah never saw such a thing with his own eyes.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُمَيْرٍ، عِيسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ النَّحَّاسِ الرَّمْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ضَمْرَةُ بْنُ رَبِيعَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ زَارَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ قَوْمَهُ بِيُبْنَا فَأَتَوْهُ بِرُقَاقٍ مِنْ رُقَاقِ الأُوَلِ فَبَكَى وَقَالَ مَا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ هَذَا بِعَيْنِهِ قَطُّ

He realized that even though he was able to enjoy these simple pleasures, Prophet Muhammad never got to experience them himself.
