[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ was asked about eating dried dates. He said, "What is the benefit in eating them when they are dry?" They responded, "Indeed, there is no benefit." So he prohibited it. This narration was reported to us by Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah, from Isma'il ibn Umayyah, in a similar wording from Al-Thawri.
سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنِ الرُّطَبِ بِالتَّمْرِ قَالَ أَيَنْقُصُ إِذَا يَبِسَ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَنَهَى عَنْهُ وَرُوِّينَاهُ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ بِنَحْوٍ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ الثَّوْرِيِّ
