286 – Ibrāhīm ibn Saʿīd narrated to me; he said: al-Rabīʿ ibn Nāfiʿ narrated to us; he said: Ismāʿīl ibn ʿAyyāsh narrated to us, from Shuraḥbīl ibn Muslim, who said: “ʿUthmān ibn ʿAffān—may Allah be pleased with him—used to set before the people dishes fit for governors, yet when he entered his own house he would eat only vinegar and oil.”
٢٨٦ - حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، قَالَ: كَانَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ «يَصْنَعُ لِلنَّاسِ طَعَامَ الْأُمَرَاءِ، وَيَدْخُلُ بَيْتَهُ فَيَأْكُلُ الْخَلَّ وَالزَّيْتَ»
