children by pressing their throats! Use Ud Al-Hindi (certain Indian incense) for it cures seven dis –
eases, one of which is pleurisy. It is used as a snuff for treating throat and tonsil disease and it is in –
serted into one side of the mouth of one suffering from pleurisy.”

(the wife of the Prophet)
When the health of Allah’s Apostle deteriorated and his condition became serious, he asked the
permission of all his wives to allow him to be treated In my house, and they allowed him. He came
out, supported by two men and his legs were dragging on the ground between Abbas and another
man. (The sub-narrator told Ibn ‘Abbas who said: Do you know who was the other man whom ‘Aisha
did not mention? The sub-narrator said: No. Ibn Abbas said: It was ‘Ali.) ‘Aisha added: When the
Prophet entered my house and his disease became aggravated, he said, “Pour on me seven water skins
full of water (the tying ribbons of which had not been untied) so that I may give some advice to the
people.” So we made him sit in a tub belonging to Hafsa, the wife of the Prophet and started pouring
water on him from those water skins till he waved us to stop. Then he went out to the people and led
them in prayer and delivered a speech before them.

all get infected with mangy.” The Prophet said, “Then who conveyed the (mange) disease to the first
one?”

Fatima was washing the blood off his face. When Fatima saw that the bleeding increased because of
the water, she took a mat (of palm leaves), burnt it, and stuck it (the burnt ashes) on the wound of
Allah’s Apostle, whereupon the bleeding stopped.
