English translation
2037. Umm Al-Mundhir said: "The Messenger of Allāh entered upon me, while 'Ali was with him, and we had a cluster of unripened dates hanging." She said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ began eating, and 'Ali ate with him. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to 'Ali: 'Stop, stop, for you are still recovering.' So 'Ali sat and the Prophet ﷺ ate." She said: "I made some chard and barely for them, so the Prophet ﷺ said: 'O 'Ali eat from this, for indeed it will be more suitable for you.'" (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Gharīb, we do not know of it except from the narration of Fulāih bin Sulaimān. And this Hadīth has been reported from Fulāih bin Sulaimān, from Ayyūb bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān. (Another chain) from Umm Al-Mundhir Al-Anṣāriyyah who said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered upon me" and mentioned similar to the narration of Yūnus bin Muḥammad (a narrator in the chain of no. 2037) from Fulāih bin Sulaimān, except that in it he said: "More beneficial for you." In his narration, Muḥammad bin Bashshār said: "Ayyūb bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān narrated it to me." And this Hadīth is Jayyid Gharīb. (Another chain) from 'Āṣim bin 'Umar bin Qatādah, from Maḥmūd bin Labīd, from the Prophet ﷺ with similar, but he did not mention "from Qatādah bin An-Nu'mān" in it. [Abū 'Eisā said:] Qatādah bin An-Nu'mān Az-Zafārī is the brother of Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī through his mother, and Maḥmūd bin Labīd lived during the life time of the Prophet ﷺ, and he saw him when he was a young boy. Umm Al-Mundhir's narration confirms the fact that a sick person must avoid those items of food that either harm him or do not suit with his condition. He should instead use things that are useful and medically appropriate for him.
