"عَلَيكُمْ بهذا العودِ الهِندى، فإِنَّ فيه سبعةَ أشْفِية: يُستَعَطُّ به من العُذْرَة، وَيُلَدُّ به من ذاتِ الْجَنْبِ".
Indian aloeswood and sprinkling water on an infant’s urine
[AI] I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying: "You should use this Indian aloeswood, for in it are seven cures. It is inhaled through the nose for al-udhrah, and administered through the side of the mouth for pleurisy."
I entered upon the Prophet ﷺ with a son of mine who had not yet eaten food, and he urinated on him. He then called for water and sprinkled it over it.
سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ، فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ، يُسْتَعَطُ بِهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ، وَيُلَدُّ بِهِ مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ».
وَدَخَلْتُ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِابْنٍ لِي لَمْ يَأْكُلِ الطَّعَامَ، فَبَالَ عَلَيْهِ، فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَرَشَّ عَلَيْهِ.
I visited Messenger of Allah ﷺ along with my son who had not, by that time, been weaned and he urinated over his (clothes). He ordered water to be brought and sprinkled (it) over them. She (further) said: I visited him (Allah's Apostle) along with my son and I had squeezed the swelling in the uvula, whereupon he said: Why do you afflict your children by compressing like this? Use this Indian aloeswood, for it contains seven types of remedies, one among them being a remedy for pleurisy. It is applied through the nose for a swelling of the uvula and poured into the side of the mouth for pleurisy.
دَخَلْتُ بِابْنٍ لِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَأْكُلِ الطَّعَامَ فَبَالَ عَلَيْهِ فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَرَشَّهُ قَالَتْ وَدَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِابْنٍ لِي قَدْ أَعْلَقْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ فَقَالَ عَلاَمَهْ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلاَدَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعِلاَقِ عَلَيْكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ يُسْعَطُ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ وَيُلَدُّ مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ
I brought my son to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while I had compressed his uvula for its swelling. He said : Why do you afflict your children by squeezing for a swelling in the Uvula ? Apply this Indian aloes wood, for it contain seven types of remedies, among them being a remedy for pleurisy. It is applied through the nose for a swelling of the uvula poured into the side of the mouth for pleurisy. Abu Dawud said : By aloes wood he meant costus.
دَخَلْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِابْنٍ لِي قَدْ أَعْلَقْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ فَقَالَ عَلاَمَ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلاَدَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعِلاَقِ عَلَيْكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ يُسْعَطُ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ وَيُلَدُّ مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ

دَخَلْتُ بِابْنٍ لِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَأْكُلِ الطَّعَامَ فَبَالَ فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَرَشَّهُ وَدَخَلْتُ بِابْنٍ لِي قَدْ أَعْلَقْتُ عَنْهُ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ فَقَالَ عَلَامَ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلَادَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعِلَاقِ؟ عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذَا الْقُسْطِ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً سُفْيَانُ الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ فَإِنَّ فِيِهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ يُسْعَطُ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ وَيُلَدُّ مِنْ ذَاتِ الْجَنْبِ
"عَلامَ تَدغُرنَ أَوْلادَكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعِلاقِ؟ عَلَيكُنَّ بهذا العود الْهنْدِيِّ فَإِنَّ فيه سَبعَةَ أشفِيَةٍ من سَبعَة أَدواء مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ وَيُسعَطُ بِهِ مِنَ العُذْرَةِ وَيُلَدُّ بِهِ مِنْ ذَاتِ الجنْبِ".
