٣٧١٨٣ - حدثنا أبو (خالد) (١) الأحمر عن يحيى بن سعيد عن محمد بن يحيى بن (حبان) (٢) قال: كان بين يدي عمر صحفة فيها خبز مفتوت فيه فجاء رجل كالبدوي، قال: فقال: كل، قال: فجعل يتبع باللقمة الدسم في جانب الصحفة، فقال عمر: كأنك مقفر، فقال: واللَّه ما ذقت (سمنا) (٣) ولا (رأيت) (٤) (له) (٥) آكلا، فقال عمر: واللَّه لا أذوق سمنا حتى يحيى الناس من أول ما يحيون (٦).
It is narrated from Hazrat Muhammad bin Yahya that he says: There was a plate in front of Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) in which there was bread, crumbled in ghee, when a man of rural appearance came. The narrator says that Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Eat. The narrator says: So he began to take morsels from the greasy edge of the plate. Upon this, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: It seems you are hungry? He said: By Allah! I have neither tasted ghee nor have I seen anyone eating it. Upon this, Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: By Allah! I will not taste ghee until __YAHYA AL-NASU MIN AWWALI MA YAHYAWN__
