حَدَّثَنِي يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُلَيَّةَ ، عَنِ الْمُثَنَّى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي طَلْحَةُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، يَقُولُ: أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِيَدِي ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ ، فَأَخْرَجَ إِلَيْهِ فِلَقًا مِنْ خُبْزٍ ، فَقَالَ: مَا مِنْ أُدُمٍ ؟ فَقَالُوا: لاَ إِلاَّ شَيْءٌ مِنْ خَلٍّ ، قَالَ : فَإِنَّ الْخَلَّ نِعْمَ الأُدُمُ. قَالَ جَابِرٌ: فَمَا زِلْتُ أُحِبُّ الْخَلَّ مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ نَبِيِّ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. وقَالَ طَلْحَةُ: مَا زِلْتُ أُحِبُّ الْخَلَّ مُنْذُ سَمِعْتُهَا مِنْ جَابِرٍ.

Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) took me by the hand one day and (led me) to his house, and some pieces of bread were brought to him. He said: 'Is there any condiment?' They said: 'No, except a little vinegar.' He said: 'Vinegar is an excellent condiment."' Jabir said: "I have not stopped liking vinegar since I heard that from the Prophet of Allah (s.a.w)." Talhah said: "I have not stopped liking vinegar since I heard that from Jabir."
