ahmad-zuhd:2206ʿAbdullāh > Abū ʿAbdullāh al-Sulamī > Ḍamrah > Shammah al-ʿAkkī

[Machine] Tawus said to me, "If you pray Isha (night prayer), then pray three additional rak'ahs after it, and do not eat the food of a famous person."  

الزهد لأحمد:٢٢٠٦حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ السُّلَمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ضَمْرَةُ عَنْ شَمَّةَ الْعَكِّيِّ قَالَ

قَالَ لِي طَاوُسٌ «إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ الْعِشَاءَ فَصَلِّ بَعْدَهَا ثَلَاثًا وَلَا تَأْكُلْ طَعَامَ امْرِئٍ عَرِيفٍ»
