3779. It was narrated from ‘Uthmān bin Abī Sulaimān, from Ṣafwān bin Umayyah who said: “I was eating with the Prophet ﷺ, and I was taking the meat from the bone with my hand. He said: ‘Bring the bone to your mouth, for it is more enjoyable and healthier.’” (Da’if) Abū Dāwūd said: ‘Uthmān did not hear from Ṣafwān, so it is Mursal.

3779 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ آكُلُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَآخُذُ اللَّحْمَ بِيَدِي مِنَ الْعَظْمِ، فَقَالَ: «أَدْنِ الْعَظْمَ مِنْ فِيكَ فَإِنَّهُ أَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «عُثْمَانُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ صَفْوَانَ وَهُوَ مُرْسَلٌ»
