Question

Could you mention the reference for the Hadith wherein Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:

“Vinegar is an excellent gravy”

 

Answer

Imam Muslim (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration on the authority of Sayyidah ‘Aishah and Sayyiduna Jabir ibn ‘Abdillah (radiyallahu ‘anhuma).

Sayyiduna Jabir’s version states that Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) once requested one of his wives for some gravy. She replied, “We only have vinegar”, to which Nabi (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Vinegar is an excellent gravy”

(Sahih Muslim, Hadith: 2051, 2052)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows best.

التخريج من المصادر العربية

صحيح مسلم:
(٢٠٥١) – حدثنا يحيى بن يحيى، أخبرنا أبو عوانة، عن أبي بشر، عن أبي سفيان، عن جابر بن عبد الله، أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم سأل أهله الأدم، فقالوا: ما عندنا إلا خل، فدعا به، فجعل يأكل به، ويقول: «نعم الأدم الخل، نعم الأدم الخل».

صحيح مسلم:
(٢٠٥٢) – حدثني يعقوب بن إبراهيم الدورقي، حدثنا إسماعيل يعني ابن علية، عن المثنى بن سعيد، حدثني طلحة بن نافع، أنه سمع جابر بن عبد الله، يقول: أخذ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بيدي ذات يوم إلى منزله، فأخرج إليه فلقا من خبز، فقال: «ما من أدم؟» فقالوا: لا إلا شيء من خل، قال: «فإن الخل نعم الأدم»، قال جابر: «فما زلت أحب الخل منذ سمعتها من نبي الله صلى الله عليه وسلم»، وقال طلحة: ما زلت أحب الخل منذ سمعتها من جابر.
