حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ، أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ الصَّفَّارُ، ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أنبأ مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، وَعِكْرِمَةَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ، أَنَّ حَفْصَةَ، وَابْنَ مُطِيعٍ، وَعَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ كَلَّمُوا عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَقَالُوا: لَوْ أَكَلْتَ طَعَامًا طَيِّبًا كَانَ أَقْوَى لَكَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ. قَالَ: " أَكُلُّكُمْ عَلَى هَذَا الرَّأْيِ؟ ". قَالُوا: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: " قَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ إِلَّا نَاصِحٌ، وَلَكِنْ تَرَكْتُ صَاحِبِيَّ عَلَى جَادَّةٍ فَإِنْ تَرَكْتُ جَادَّتَهُمَا لَمْ أُدْرِكْهُمَا فِي الْمَنْزِلِ ". قَالَ: " وَأَصَابَ النَّاسَ سَنَةٌ فَمَا أَكَلَ عَامَئِذٍ سَمْنًا وَلَا سَمِينًا حَتَّى أَحْيَا النَّاسُ.
Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her), Ibn Muti' and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) came to Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) and said to him: If you were to eat good food, it would make you stronger for the work of the truth. Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Is this the opinion of all of you? They said: Yes. He said: I know that you are my well-wishers, but shall I leave the path of my two companions? If I abandon their way, I will not be able to reach them on the Day of Resurrection. A year of hardship came upon the people, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) did not eat ghee or fatty roasted meat for the whole year, until the people revived and recovered.
