Companion’s words (mawquf) Muwatta Malik 1702
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، كَانَ يَأْكُلُ خُبْزًا بِسَمْنٍ فَدَعَا رَجُلاً مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَجَعَلَ يَأْكُلُ وَيَتَّبِعُ بِاللُّقْمَةِ وَضَرَ الصَّحْفَةِ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ كَأَنَّكَ مُقْفِرٌ . فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَكَلْتُ سَمْنًا وَلاَ رَأَيْتُ أَكْلاً بِهِ مُنْذُ كَذَا وَكَذَا . فَقَالَ عُمَرُ لاَ آكُلُ السَّمْنَ حَتَّى يَحْيَا النَّاسُ مِنْ أَوَّلِ مَا يَحْيَوْنَ .

Yahya related to me from Malik from Yahya ibn Said that Umar ibn al-Khattab was eating bread with ghee. He summoned one of the desert people and he began to eat and follow the grease in the dish with a morsel of bread. Umar said, "It is as if you were poor." He said, "By Allah. I have not eaten ghee nor have I seen food with it since such- and-such a time." Umar declared, "I shall not eat clarified butter until people are given life again like they were first given life," (i.e. on the Day of Rising.)

( ش ) : قَوْلُهُ : إِنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِي اللَّهُ عَنْهُ كَانَ يَأْكُلُ خُبْزًا بِسَمْنٍ وَذَلِكَ يَقْتَضِي اسْتِبَاحَةَ طِيبِ الْأُدْمِ فَدَعَا رَجُلًا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ تَوَاضُعًا بِمُؤَاكَلَةِ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ وَلَعَلَّهُ قَصَدَ تَعْلِيمَهُ آدَابَ الْأَكْلِ كَمَا عَلَّمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم عُمَرَ بْنَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عِنْدَ مُؤَاكَلَتِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ سَمِّ اللَّهَ وَكُلْ مِمَّا يَلِيك وَلَعَلَّهُ قَصَدَ أَيْضًا أَنْ يَتَعَرَّفَ حَالَهُ بِمَا يَظْهَرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ أَكْلِهِ فَجَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ يَأْكُلُ وَيَتْبَعُ بِاللُّقْمَةِ وَضَرَ الصَّحْفَةِ وَهُوَ مَا تَعَلَّقَ بِالصَّحْفَةِ مِنْ دَسَمِ الطَّعَامِ وَالْوَدَكِ قَالَهُ عِيسَى بْنُ دِينَارٍ و…
