2085. Abū Ḥazim said: "While I was listening, Sahl bin Sa'd was asked: 'What were the wounds of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ treated with?' He said: 'None is alive who is more knowledgeable of it than I. 'Ali would come with water in his shield, and Fātimah would use it to wash his blood off, and a mat was burnt for him and his wounds were filled with it (its ashes).'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ.

Arabic text

٢٠٨٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ: «سُئِلَ ‌سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ: بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ دُووِيَ جُرْحُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ فَقَالَ: مَا بَقِيَ أَحَدٌ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ مِنِّي، كَانَ عَلِيٌّ» يَأْتِي بِالْمَاءِ فِي تُرْسِهِ، وَفَاطِمَةُ تَغْسِلُ عَنْهُ الدَّمَ، وَأُحْرِقَ لَهُ حَصِيرٌ فَحُشِيَ بِهِ جُرْحُهُ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

In cases where the wound is not very deep, bleeding can be stopped through the use of the ashes of date-palm leaves or jute or some cotton cloth, since all these objects have the effect of drying out the wounds.
