نعم الإدام الخل
Vinegar is the best condiment
Hadith Number: 7049
حدثنا ابو العباس محمد بن يعقوب، حدثنا العباس بن محمد الدوري، حدثنا الحسن بن بشر الهمداني، حدثنا سعدان بن الوليد بياع السابري، عن عطاء، عن ابن عباس، عن ام هانئ بنت ابي طالب قالت: قال لي رسول الله ﷺ:"هل عندك طعام آكله؟" وكان جائعا، فقلت: إن عندي لكسرا يابسة، وإني لاستحيي ان اقربها إليك، فقال:"هلميها"، فكسرتها ونشرت عليها الملح، فقال:"هل من إدام؟" فقلت: يا رسول الله، ما عندي إلا شيء من خل، قال:"هلميه"، فلما جئته به صبه على طعامه فاكل منه، ثم حمد الله تعالى، ثم قال:"نعم الإدام الخل يا ام هانئ، لا يقفر بيت فيه خل" (1). وقد روى عبد الله بن عمر بن الخطاب عن ام هانئ:
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyidah Umm Hani' bint Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "Do you have anything to eat?" and he (peace and blessings be upon him) was hungry. I said: I have a few dry pieces of bread, and I feel shy to present them to you (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring them." So I broke those pieces and sprinkled salt on them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Is there any condiment?" I said: O Messenger of Allah! I have nothing but vinegar. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring that." When I brought it, he (peace and blessings be upon him) poured it on the food and ate it, then praised Allah Almighty and said: "O Umm Hani'! What an excellent condiment vinegar is! A house in which there is vinegar will never be in want."
Abdullah bin Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with them both) has also narrated from Umm Hani'.

Details of the narration: Abu Sa'id bin Abi 'Amr was paired with al-Hakim as a co-narrator, and it was placed in the Musnad of Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him), in which he relates the story of Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her).

وأخرجه البيهقي في "شعب الإيمان" (5545) عن أبي عبد الله الحاكم، بهذا الإسناد. وقرن بالحاكم أبا سعيد بن أبي عمرو، وجعله من مسند ابن عبّاس يحكي فيه قصة أم هانئ.
Reference / Source: Likewise al-Tabarani narrated it in "al-Awsat" after narration no. (6934), and in "al-Saghir" (951), through Muhammad bin al-Husayn bin al-Bastanban, from al-Hasan bin Bishr.
وأخرجه كذلك الطبراني في "الأوسط" بإثر (6934)، وفي "الصغير" (951) عن محمد بن الحسين بن البستنبان، عن الحسن بن بشر، به.
Details of the narration: Abu 'Awanah narrated it in his "Sahih" (8381) and al-Tabarani in "al-Kabir" (11338) via Talhah bin 'Amr, from 'Ata', from Ibn Abbas, as marfu': "Vinegar is an excellent condiment."
Grading: Abu 'Awanah declared the narrator Talhah bin 'Amr, who is in its chain, weak.

وأخرجه مختصرًا أبو عوانة في "صحيحه" (8381)، والطبراني في "الكبير" (11338) من طريق طلحة بن عمرو، عن عطاء، عن ابن عبّاس مرفوعًا: "نعم الإدام الخل". وضعف أبو عوانة طلحة بن عمرو.
Reference / Source: Al-Tirmidhi narrated it in "al-Jami'" (1841) and "al-'Ilal al-Kabir" (569) via Abu Hamzah Thabit al-Thumali (Thabit bin Abi Safiyyah), from al-Sha'bi, from Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her), and called it "hasan gharib" from this route.
Technical note / Defect ('illah): According to Imam al-Bukhari, al-Sha'bi's hearing from Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) is not established; moreover, Abu Hamzah al-Thumali is weak according to the majority of the hadith scholars, and even "matruk" according to some.
Important point: The narration "Vinegar is an excellent condiment" is originally in Sahih Muslim (2051, 2052) from 'A'ishah and Jabir (may Allah be pleased with them), and according to Jabir's narration this incident took place at the home of one of the Pure Wives, not at the home of Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her).

وأخرجه الترمذي في "الجامع" (1841)، وفي "العلل الكبير" (569) عن أبي حمزة ثابت الثمالي، عن الشعبي، عن أم هانئ. وقال حسن غريب من هذا الوجه، لا نعرفه من حديث أم هانئ إلا من هذا الوجه! وأبو حمزة الثمالي اسمه ثابت بن أبي صفية، وأم هانئ ماتت بعد علي بن أبي طالب بزمان، وسألت محمدًا عن هذا الحديث، فقال: لا أعرفُ للشعبي سماعًا من أم هانئ، فقلت: أبو حمزة كيف هو عندك؟ فقال: أحمد بن حنبل تكلم فيه، وهو عندي مقارب الحديث. قلنا: كذا قال البخاري في الثمالي وغيره من أهل الحديث قد اتفقوا على ضعفه وبعضهم عده في المتروكين. وقوله: "نعم الإدام الخلُّ" صحَّ من حديث عائشة ومن حديث جابر، كلاهما عند مسلم برقمي (2051) و (2052)، وفي حديث جابر أنَّ ذلك وقع عند إحدى زوجات النَّبيّ ﷺ، وليس عند أم هانئ.
