Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Yazid bin Abu Ziyad narrates that Hazrat Mujahid and Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair went to Hazrat Ata to inquire about eating saffron-mixed bread while in the state of Ihram. Hazrat Ata disliked it. Both of them asked: Has anyone narrated a hadith to you regarding this? Hazrat Ata replied, no. So both of them ate that bread and did not pay attention to his opinion.

Hazrat Khaseef narrates that I asked Hazrat Mujahid and Hazrat Ata about dry nanj bread and yellow halwa. Both of them disliked it. The narrator says that then I asked Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair, and he said: "Do you use olive oil while in the state of ihram?" I replied, "No." He said, "Do you use ghee while in the state of ihram?" I replied, "No." He said, "Indeed, dry nanj bread is baked in fire."
