"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me, while ʿAli was with him, and we had a cluster of unripe dates hanging." She said: "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ began eating, and ʿAli ate with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to ʿAli: 'Stop, stop, for you are still recovering.' So ʿAli sat and the Prophet ﷺ ate." She said: "I made some chard and barley for them, so the Prophet ﷺ said: 'O ʿAli eat from this, for indeed it will be more suitable for you." Another chain reports a similar narration.  

دَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيٌّ وَلَنَا دَوَالٍ مُعَلَّقَةٌ قَالَتْ فَجَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ وَعَلِيٌّ مَعَهُ يَأْكُلُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ مَهْ مَهْ يَا عَلِيُّ فَإِنَّكَ نَاقِهٌ قَالَ فَجَلَسَ عَلِيٌّ وَالنَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ قَالَتْ فَجَعَلْتُ لَهُمْ سِلْقًا وَشَعِيرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَا عَلِيُّ مِنْ هَذَا فَأَصِبْ فَإِنَّهُ أَوْفَقُ لَكَ  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon us, and with him was ‘Ali bin Abu Talib, who had recently recovered from an illness. We had bunches of unripe dates hanging up, and the Prophet ﷺ was eating from them. ‘Ali reached out to eat some, and the Prophet ﷺ said to ‘Ali: ‘Stop, O ‘Ali! You have just recovered from an illness.’ I made some greens and barley for the Prophet ﷺ, and the Prophet ﷺ said to ‘Ali: ‘O ‘Ali, eat some of this, for it is better for you.’”  

دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَعَلِيٌّ نَاقِهٌ مِنْ مَرَضٍ وَلَنَا دَوَالِي مُعَلَّقَةٌ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا فَتَنَاوَلَ عَلِيٌّ لِيَأْكُلَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَهْ يَا عَلِيُّ إِنَّكَ نَاقِهٌ قَالَتْ فَصَنَعْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ سِلْقًا وَشَعِيرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَا عَلِيُّ مِنْ هَذَا فَأَصِبْ فَإِنَّهُ أَنْفَعُ لَكَ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me, and with him was Ali, and Ali had a sick camel, and we had some hanging dates. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and started eating from them, and Ali also stood up and started eating from them. Then, the Prophet ﷺ suddenly exclaimed to Ali, saying, "O Ali, you are a camel until you are satisfied." She said, "And I made barley and boiled it, so I brought it." The Prophet ﷺ said to Ali, "Leave this and eat from it, as it is more beneficial for you."  

دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيٌّ وَعَلِيٌّ نَاقِهٌ مِنْ مَرَضٍ وَلَنَا دَوَالٍ مُعَلَّقَةٌ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا وَقَامَ عَلِيٌّ يَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا فَطَفِقَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِعَلِيٍّ مَهْ إِنَّكَ نَاقِهٌ حَتَّى كَفَّ قَالَتْ وَصَنَعْتُ شَعِيرًا وَسِلْقًا فَجِئْتُ بِهِ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ مِنْ هَذَا أَصِبْ فَهُوَ أَنْفَعُ لَكَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ entered upon me with Ali ibn Abi Talib, and Ali had a camel suffering from illness. I said, "We have some dates hanging, so the Prophet ﷺ and Ali got up to eat from them." The Prophet ﷺ coughed and said, "Wait, for you are a camel until Ali finishes." I said, "I have already prepared barley and boiled it." When we brought it, the Prophet ﷺ said to Ali, "Try this, as it might suit you better." So they both ate from it.  

دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَعَلِيٌّ نَاقِهٌ مِنْ مَرَضٍ قَالَتْ وَلَنَا دَوَالٍ مُعَلَّقَةٌ فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَعَلِيٌّ يَأْكُلَانِ مِنْهَا فَطَفِقَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَهْلًا فَإِنَّكَ نَاقِهٌ حَتَّى كَفَّ عَلِيٌّ قَالَتْ وَقَدْ صَنَعْتُ شَعِيرًا وَسِلْقًا فَلَمَّا جِئْنَا بِهِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِعَلِيٍّ مِنْ هَذَا أَصِبْ فَهُوَ أَوْفَقُ لَكَ فَأَكَلَا ذَلِكَ  

[Machine] The Prophet, ﷺ , entered upon me, and Ali was with him, riding a camel. I said, "We have some hanging dates." The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , stood up and started eating, and Ali also started eating. Then the Prophet, ﷺ , said, "Hold on, for you are riding a camel." Ali sat down and the Prophet, ﷺ , ate from it. Then I made them a dish of boiled barley and corn. The Prophet, ﷺ , said, "May you be rewarded for this."  

دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ عَلِيٌّ وَهُوَ نَاقِهٌ قَالَتْ وَلَنَا دَوَالِي مُعَلَّقَةٌ قَالَتْ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْكُلُ وَقَامَ عَلِيُّ يَأْكُلُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَهْلًا فَإِنَّكَ نَاقِهٌ قَالَتْ فَجَلَسَ عَلِيٌّ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ ثُمَّ جَعَلْتُ لَهُمِ سِلْقًا وَشَعِيرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مِنْ هَذَا أَصِبْ»
