The virtue of vinegar and using it as a condiment

باب فَضِيلَةِ الْخَلِّ وَالتَّأَدُّمِ بِهِ ‏‏

Sahih Muslim 2052c
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُثَنَّى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ، بْنِ نَافِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى مَنْزِلِهِ ‏.‏ بِمِثْلِ حَدِيثِ ابْنِ عُلَيَّةَ إِلَى قَوْلِهِ ‏ ‏ ‏.‏ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ مَا بَعْدَهُ ‏.‏
"‏ فَنِعْمَ الأُدُمُ الْخَلُّ ‏"
This hadith is reported on the authority of Jabir b. 'Abdullah that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) took hold of his hand and led him to his residence as narrated above up to the words:

" Vinegar is a good condiment." But in the hadith transmitted through this chain of transmitters, there is no mention of the subsequent part.
