that a man visited Ali bin Abu Talib and he made some food for him.* Fatimah said: "Why don't we invite the Prophet (saw) to eat with us?" So they invited him and he came. He put his hand on the doorpost of the house and saw a thin curtain in the corner of the house, so he went back. Fatimah said to Ali: "Go and catch up with him, and ask him: What made you go back, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "I do not enter a well-decorated house."

that Umar entered upon him when he was eating, and he made room for him in the middle of the gathering. He said: Bismillah, then he took a morsel and ate it, then a second. Then he said: "I notice some fat in the food but it is not the fat of the meat." Abdullah said: "O Commander of the Believers! I went out to the marketplace looking for some fatty meat (bones with plenty of meat on them) to buy, but it was expensive, so I bought some lean meat (bones with not much meat on them) for a Dirham, and added a Dirham's worth of ghee. I wanted my family to go through it bone by bone." Umar said: "The Messenger of Allah (saw) never had these two things together; he would eat one and give the other in charity."
