Hadith 30
The Book of Drinks
Jabir b. 'Abdullah reported:
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took hold of my hand one day (and led me) to his residence. There was presented to him some pieces of bread, whereupon he said: Is there no condiment? They (the members of his household) said: No, except some vinegar. He (the Prophet) said: Vinegar is a good condiment. Jabir said: I have always loved vinegar since I heard it trom Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). Talha said: I have always loved vinegar since I heard about it from Jabir.
