5687. Narrated Khālid bin Sa'd: We went out and Ghālib bin Abjar was accompanying us. He fell ill on the way and when we arrived at Al-Madīna, he was still sick. Ibn Abu 'Atīq came to visit him and said to us, "Treat him with black cumin. Take five or seven seeds and crush them (mix the powder with oil) and drop the resulting mixture into both nostrils, for 'Aīshah رضي الله عنها has narrated to me that she heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, 'This black cumin is healing for all diseases except As-Sām.' 'Aishah asked, 'What is As-Sām?' He ﷺ said, 'Death.'

5687 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، قَالَ: خَرَجْنَا وَمَعَنَا غَالِبُ بْنُ أَبْجَرَ فَمَرِضَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، فَقَدِمْنَا المَدِينَةَ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ، فَعَادَهُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَتِيقٍ، فَقَالَ لَنَا: عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذِهِ الحُبَيْبَةِ السَّوْدَاءِ، فَخُذُوا مِنْهَا خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا فَاسْحَقُوهَا، ثُمَّ اقْطُرُوهَا فِي أَنْفِهِ بِقَطَرَاتِ زَيْتٍ، فِي هَذَا الجَانِبِ وَفِي هَذَا الجَانِبِ، فَإِنَّ عَائِشَةَ، حَدَّثَتْنِي: أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ الحَبَّةَ السَّوْدَاءَ شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ، إِلَّا مِنَ السَّامِ» قُلْتُ: وَمَا السَّامُ؟ قَالَ: المَوْتُ
