عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ دَخَلَ عَلَى جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا نَفَرٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِمْ خُبْزًا وَخَلًّا فَقَالَ كُلُوا فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ نِعْمَ الْإِدَامُ الْخَلُّ إِنَّهُ هَلَاكٌ بِالرَّجُلِ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ عَلَيْهِ النَّفَرُ مِنْ إِخْوَانِهِ فَيَحْتَقِرَ مَا فِي بَيْتِهِ أَنْ يُقَدِّمَهُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَهَلَاكٌ بِالْقَوْمِ أَنْ يَحْتَقِرُوا مَا قُدِّمَ إِلَيْهِمْ
Abdullah bin Ubaid says that a group of the noble Companions came to Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both). He presented bread and vinegar and said: Eat, the reason I am offering this is that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say that the best condiment is vinegar. It is a cause of a man's ruin that a group of his brothers comes to him and he considers what is present in the house as insignificant to offer as hospitality, and it is a cause of people's ruin that they consider what is presented to them in hospitality as insignificant.
