abudawud:3779Muḥammad b. ʿĪsá > Ibn ʿUlayyah > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Isḥāq > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Muʿāwiyah > ʿUthmān b. Abū Sulaymān > Ṣafwān b. Umayyah

I was eating with the Prophet ﷺ and snatching the meat from the bone with my hand. He said: bring the bone near your mouth, for it is more beneficial and wholesome. Abu Dawud said: 'Uthman did not hear (traditions) from Safwan. This is a mursal tradition.  

أبو داود:٣٧٧٩حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ قَالَ

كُنْتُ آكُلُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَآخُذُ اللَّحْمَ بِيَدِي مِنَ الْعَظْمِ فَقَالَ أَدْنِ الْعَظْمَ مِنْ فِيكَ فَإِنَّهُ أَهْنَأُ وَأَمْرَأُ  

قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ عُثْمَانُ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ مِنْ صَفْوَانَ وَهُوَ مُرْسَلٌ
