Musnad Abi Ya'la 2644 — he said: I prepared food and invited Sulayman
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، قَالَ : صَنَعْتُ طَعَامًا فَدَعَوْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَعْمَشَ فَبَلَغَنِي عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ : إِنَّ وَضَّاحًا دَعَانَا عَلَى عَرْقٍ عَائِرٍ وَرُمَّانٍ حَامِضٍ ، قَالَ : فَلَقِيتُ رَقَبَةَ بْنَ مَسْقَلَةَ فَشَكَوْتُهُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ : أَكْفِيكَ ، فَلَقِيَهُ فَقَالَ : يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ دَعَاكَ أَخٌ مِنْ إِخْوَانِنَا فَأَكْرَمَكَ ثُمَّ تَقُولُ عَلَى عَرْقٍ عَائِرٍ وَرُمَّانٍ حَامِضٍ ؟! أَمَا وَاللهِ مَا عَلِمْتُكَ إِلَّا شَرِسَ الطَّبِيعَةِ ، دَائِمَ الْقُطُوبِ ، سَرِيعَ الْمَلَلِ ، مُسْتَخِفًّا بِحُقُوقِ الزَّوْرِ ، كَأَنَّكَ تُسْعَطُ الْخَرْدَلَ إِذَا سُئِلْتَ الْحِكَايَةَ .
It is narrated from Abu Awanah (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: I prepared food and invited Sulayman al-A'mash (may Allah have mercy on him). Then word reached me from him that he had said: "Waddah invited us to a bone stripped of meat and a sour pomegranate." Abu Awanah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Then I met Raqabah bin Masqalah (may Allah have mercy on him) and complained to him about Sulayman al-A'mash (may Allah have mercy on him). He said: "I will take care of it for you (that is, I will speak to him)." Then he met him and said: "O Abu Muhammad, one of our brothers invited you and honoured you, and then you go about saying it was just a bone and a sour pomegranate? By Allah, as far as I know you, you are extremely ill-tempered, always frowning, quickly bored, and you think little of the rights of visitors; it is as if mustard were being forced up your nose whenever you are asked to narrate something."
