English translation
[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.”
