عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ عُمَيْسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ قَالَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَاذَا كُنْتِ تَسْتَشْفِينَ قَالَتْ بِالشُّبْرُمِ قَالَ حَارٌّ جَارٌّ ثُمَّ اسْتَشْفَيْتُ بِالسَّنَا قَالَ لَوْ كَانَ شَيْءٌ يَشْفِي مِنَ الْمَوْتِ كَانَ السَّنَا أَوِ السَّنَا شِفَاءٌ مِنَ الْمَوْتِ
Lady Asma bint Umais (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: With what do you take a laxative? I said: With the shrub Shabram. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: That is hot and a strong purgative. Then I took a laxative with the Sana herb. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding it: If there were anything that could cure death, it would be this Sana makki.
