2039. Āishah narrated: “Whenever one of the wives of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ became (feverishly) ill, he would order that some broth be prepared. Then he would tell them to take some of the broth,[1] and he would say: ‘It firms the heart of the grieved, and it rids the worries from the heart of the ill just as one of you removes dirt from her face with water.’” (Hasan)
[Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ. Some of this was reported by [Ibn Al-Mubārak from Yūnus, from] Az-Zuhri, from ‘Urwah, from ‘Āishah, from the Prophet ﷺ.
(Another chain) from ‘Āishah, from the Prophet ﷺ with its meaning. That was narrated to us by Abū Iṣhāq.
