[5764] 87 - (...) 'Ubaidullâh bin 'Abdullâh bin 'Utbah bin Mas'ûd narrated that Umm Qais bint Mihsan, who was one of the earliest Muhâjir women who had sworn allegiance to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, and who was the sister of 'Ukâshah bin Mihsan, one of Banû Asad bin Khuzaimah, told him that she brought a son of hers, who had not reached the age of eating food, to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. She had squeezed his uvula to relieve swelling - Yûnus (a narrator) said: "She had squeezed his uvula because she was afraid it might have swollen" - she said: "The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Why do you squeeze your children's uvulas like this? You should use this Indian aloeswood – meaning costmary – for in it there are seven cures, including pleurisy.”

87 - (2214) وحَدَّثَنِي حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، أَنَّ ابْنَ شِهَابٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، أَنَّ أُمَّ قَيْسٍ بِنْتَ مِحْصَنٍ - وَكَانَتْ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرَاتِ الْأُوَلِ اللَّاتِي بَايَعْنَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَهِيَ أُخْتُ عُكَّاشَةَ بْنِ مِحْصَنٍ، أَحَدِ بَنِي أَسَدِ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ - قَالَ: أَخْبَرَتْنِي أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِابْنٍ لَهَا لَمْ يَبْلُغْ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ الطَّعَامَ، وَقَدْ أَعْلَقَتْ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ - قَالَ يُونُسُ: أَعْلَقَتْ: غَمَزَتْ فَهِيَ تَخَافُ أَنْ يَكُونَ بِهِ عُذْرَةٌ - قَالَتْ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «عَلَامَهْ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلَادَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْإِعْلَاقِ؟ عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ - يَعْنِي بِهِ الْكُسْتَ - فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ، مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ»
