The Messenger of Allah ﷺ liked sweet meats and honey. The narrator then mentioned a part of the tradition mentioned above. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ felt it hard on him to find smell from him. In this tradition saudah said: but you ate gum ? He said : No, I drank honey. Hafsah gave it to me to drank. I said : Its bees ate ‘urfut. Abu Dawud said: Maghafir is a gum ; jarasat means ate; ’urfut is a bees ‘ plant.
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُحِبُّ الْحَلْوَاءَ وَالْعَسَلَ فَذَكَرَ بَعْضَ هَذَا الْخَبَرِ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ تُوجَدَ مِنْهُ الرِّيحُ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ قَالَتْ سَوْدَةُ بَلْ أَكَلْتَ مَغَافِيرَ قَالَ بَلْ شَرِبْتُ عَسَلاً سَقَتْنِي حَفْصَةُ فَقُلْتُ جَرَسَتْ نَحْلُهُ الْعُرْفُطَ
