English translation

3877. It was narrated that Umm Qais bin Miḥṣan said: "I entered upon the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ with a son of mine whose uvula I had squeezed because of swelling. He said: 'Why do you afflict your children with this squeezing of the uvula? You should use this Indian aloes wood, for in it there are seven remedies, including (a remedy for) pleurisy. It should be snuffed for swelling and administered through the side of the mouth for pleurisy.”) (Sahih)Abū Dāwūd said: What is meant by aloes wood is costmary.

3877 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ، وَحَامِدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أُمِّ قَيْسٍ بِنْتِ مِحْصَنٍ، قَالَتْ: دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِابْنٍ لِي قَدْ أَعْلَقْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ العُذْرَةِ فَقَالَ: " عَلَامَ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلَادَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعِلَاقِ عَلَيْكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ، فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ: يُسْعَطُ مِنَ العُذْرَةِ، وَيُلَدُّ مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ " قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: " يَعْنِي بِالْعُودِ: الْقُسْطَ "
