1810. 'Ubaidullāh bin Abī Buraidah narrated from his father that Umm Ayyūb informed him that the Prophet ﷺ had stayed with them, and they prepared some food for him containing some of these vegetables. But he disliked eating it, so he said to his Companions: "Eat it, for I am not like you are, I fear that I will offend my companion."[1] (Saḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Ḥasan Saḥīḥ Gharīb. Umm Ayyūb is the wife of Abū Ayyūb Al-Anṣārī.

Commentary
