“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to me: ‘What do you use as a laxative?’ I said: ‘The Shubrum (spurge – Euphorb).’ He said: (It is) hot and powerful.’ Then I used senna as a laxative and he said: ‘If anything were to cure death, it would be senna. Senna is a cure for death.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3461)
لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِمَاذَا كُنْتِ تَسْتمَشْينَ؟ قَالَتْ بِالشُّبْرُمِ قَالَ حَارٌّ جَارٌّ ثُمَّ اسْتَشْفَيْتُ بِالسَّنَا قَالَ لَوْ كَانَ شَيْءٌ يَشْفِي مِنَ الْمَوْتِ كَانَ السَّنَا أَوِ السَّنَا شِفَاءٌ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ
