دَخَلْتُ عَلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) وَ هُوَ يَأْكُلُ خَلًّا وَ زَيْتاً فِي قَصْعَةٍ سَوْدَاءَ مَكْتُوبٍ فِي وَسَطِهَا بِصُفْرَةٍ قُلْ هُوَ اللَّهُ أَحَدٌ فَقَالَ لِي ادْنُ يَا بَزِيعُ فَدَنَوْتُ فَأَكَلْتُ مَعَهُ ثُمَّ حَسَا مِنَ الْمَاءِ ثَلَاثَ حَسِيَّاتٍ حِينَ لَمْ يَبْقَ مِنَ الْخُبْزِ شَيْ‏ءٌ ثُمَّ نَاوَلَنِيهَا فَحَسَوْتُ الْبَقِيَّةَ .


Translation

Ahmad Bin Yahya Bin Ibrahim, from Muhammad Bin yahya, from Ibn Abu Al Balaad, from his father, from Bazie Bin Umar Bin Bazie who said, ‘I went over to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> and he<sup>asws</sup> was eating vinegar (Khal) and oil in one black bowl, with a yellow inscription in the middle of it: ‘<span class="ibTxt">Say, He  Allah is One</span>’ (Chapter 112 Verse 1). So he<sup>asws</sup> said to me: ‘Approach, O Bazie! So I approached and ate with him. Then he<sup>asws</sup> sipped three sips from the water when there did not remain anything from the bread. Then he<sup>asws</sup> gave it to me, so I sipped the remainder’.
