2079. Maimūn Abū ‘Abdullāh said: “I heard Zaid bin Arqam say: ‘The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ ordered us to use Qust Al-Bahrī[1] and oil to treat pleurisy.’” (Da’if) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan [Gharīb] Ṣaḥīḥ. We do not know of it except as a narration of Maimūn from Zaid bin Arqam. More than one of the people of knowledge have reported this Hadīth from Maimūn. And Dhāt Al-Janb (pleurisy) is As-Sill (tuberculosis).[2]

٢٠٧٩ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌رَجَاءُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعُذْرِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي رَزِينٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌شُعْبَةُ ، عَنْ ‌خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مَيْمُونٌ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ ‌زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ: «أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نَتَدَاوَى مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ» بِالْقُسْطِ الْبَحْرِيِّ وَالزَّيْتِ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، لَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَيْمُونٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ. وَقَدْ رَوَى عَنْ مَيْمُونٍ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ. وَذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ يَعْنِي السِّلَّ.

Commentary

Qust Al-Bahrī (costus) is a kind of Indian incense. Pleurisy is of two kinds: (i) Real, which is the name given to a condition of swelling appearing in the inner wall of the ribs, and (ii) Unreal, a condition of pain (similar to the one that a person feels in Real Pleurisy) around the rib cage, caused by obnoxious and painful gases collected in the peritoneum.
