Dates were steeped for the Apostel of Allah ﷺ in skin which was tied up at the top and had a mouth. What was steeped in the morning he would drink in the evening and what was steeped in the evening he would drink in the morning.
كَانَ يُنْبَذُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي سِقَاءٍ يُوكَأُ أَعْلاَهُ وَلَهُ عَزْلاَءُ يُنْبَذُ غُدْوَةً فَيَشْرَبُهُ عِشَاءً وَيُنْبَذُ عِشَاءً فَيَشْرَبُهُ غُدْوَةً
