32 – ʿUbayd ibn Muḥammad narrated to me; he said: Abū Usāmah related to us; ⦗48⦘ Sulaymān ibn al-Mughīrah narrated from Thābit, who said: “ʿUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb once felt a longing for a drink, so a cup of honey water was brought to him. He kept turning the vessel about in his hand, saying, ‘If I drink it, its sweetness will be gone while its bitterness will remain.’ He then passed it to one of the men present, and the man drank it.”
