It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin al-Harith that His father prepared food for 'Uthman (رضي الله عنه). He said: It is as if I can see the partridge in pieces in the bowls. Then a man came and said that 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) was objecting to this. So he sent for 'Ali, whose hands were dusty because he had been knocking down leaves (to feed to the camels) and he said: You disagree with us a great deal'.Ali said: I am reminding of Allah those who were present with the Prophet ﷺ when the meat of an Onager was brought to him when he was in ihram, and he said: 'We are in ihram; give it to people who are not in ihram'. Some men stood up and testified to that. Then he said: I am reminding of Allah any man who was present with the Prophet ﷺ when five ostrich eggs were brought to him and he said: "We are in ihram, give them to people who are not in ihram " And some men stood up and testified. Then 'Uthman stood up and went into his tent, and they left the food for the people of the oasis.
