(الْمِلْحُ خَيْرُ إِدَامٍ)(Salt is the best condiment)
Hadith 4239
اُردوEn
وَعَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «سَيِّدُ إِدَامِكُمُ الْمِلْحُ» . رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ
Anas b. Malik reported God’s messenger as saying, “The lord of your condiment is salt.”* *Probably meaning that salt is necessary to make food palatable, while other condiments are extras. Ibn Majah transmitted it.
