Musnad Ahmad 814 (Book 5, Hadith 244) #34470
Refraining from Eating While in Ihram

SUMMARY: The hadith is about Uthman and Ali refraining from eating a partridge due to them being in ihram, as the Prophet Muhammad had previously said that they should not eat certain foods while in ihram.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin al-Harith bin Nawfal that 'Uthman bin 'Affan (رضي الله عنه) halted at Qudaid and a partridge was brought to him in a bowl with its legs uppermost. He sent word to 'Ali (رضي الله عنه), who was feeding a camel of his, and he came with the leaves dropping from his hands'.Ali refrained from eating it and the people also refrained'.Ali said: Who here is from Ashja? Do you know that a Bedouin brought some ostrich eggs and the meat of an Onager to the Prophet and he said: 'Feed them to your family, for we are in ihram'? They said: Yes indeed. Then 'Uthman turned away from his seat and said: We cannot have it then.
حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ نَوْفَلٍ، أَنَّ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ نَزَلَ قُدَيْدًا فَأُتِيَ بِالْحَجَلِ فِي الْجِفَانِ شَائِلَةً بِأَرْجُلِهَا فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَهُوَ يَضْفِزُ بَعِيرًا لَهُ فَجَاءَ وَالْخَبَطُ يَتَحَاتُّ مِنْ يَدَيْهِ فَأَمْسَكَ عَلِيٌّ وَأَمْسَكَ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ مَنْ هَا هُنَا مِنْ أَشْجَعَ هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ جَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ بِبَيْضَاتِ نَعَامٍ وَتَتْمِيرِ وَحْشٍ فَقَالَ أَطْعِمْهُنَّ أَهْلَكَ فَإِنَّا حُرُمٌ قَالُوا بَلَى فَتَوَرَّكَ عُثْمَانُ عَنْ سَرِيرِهِ وَنَزَلَ فَقَالَ خَبَّثْتَ عَلَيْنَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about Uthman and Ali refraining from eating a partridge due to them being in ihram. The Prophet Muhammad had previously said that they should not eat certain foods while in ihram, such as ostrich eggs and the meat of an Onager. When Uthman heard this, he immediately turned away from his seat and refused to have it. This teaches us that we must be mindful of our actions when we are performing religious duties such as Hajj or Umrah, and follow the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad so that we can gain rewards for our deeds.
