The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to visit me, accompanied by Ali who was convalescing. We had some ripe dates hung up. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up and began to eat from them. Ali also got up to eat, but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said repeatedly to Ali: Stop, Ali, for you are convalescing, and Ali stopped. She said: I then prepared some barley and beer-root and brought it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said: Take some of this, Ali, for it will be more beneficial for you. AbuDawud said: The narrator Harun said: al-Adawiyyah (i.e. Umm al-Mundhar).
