“You should eat the beneficial thing that is unpleasant to eat: Talbinah,” meaning broth. If any member of the family of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sick, the cooking pot would remain on the fire until one of two things happened, either the person recovered or died.
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْبَغِيضِ النَّافِعِ التَّلْبِينَةِ يَعْنِي الْحَسَاءَ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا اشْتَكَى أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ لَمْ تَزَلِ الْبُرْمَةُ عَلَى النَّارِ حَتَّى يَنْتَهِيَ أَحَدُ طَرَفَيْهِ يَعْنِي يَبْرَأُ أَوْ يَمُوتُ
