English translation
[1256] 76 - (565) It was narrated that Abû Sa'eed said: "As soon as Khaibar was conquered, we found ourselves (the Companions of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ) indulging in eating that vegetable" - meaning garlic - "as the people were hungry. We ate a great deal of it, then we went to the Masjid, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ noticed the smell. He said: 'Whoever eats anything from this offensive plant, let him not come near our Masjid.' The people said: 'It has been forbidden, it has been forbidden.' News of that reached the Prophet ﷺ and he said: 'O people, I cannot forbid something that Allāh has made permissible for me, but it is a plant whose smell I dislike.'"
