Majma al-Zawaid 8034 — Gourd and lentils

عَنْ وَاثِلَةَ بْنِ الْأَسْقَعِ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْقَرْعِ فَإِنَّهُ يَزِيدُ فِي الدِّمَاغِ ، وَعَلَيْكُمْ بِالْعَدَسِ فَإِنَّهُ قُدِّسَ عَلَى لِسَانِ سَبْعِينَ نَبِيًّا " .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ وَفِيهِ عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحُصَيْنِ وَهُوَ مَتْرُوكٌ .
Sayyiduna Wathilah bin al-Asqa' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Make it your practice to eat pumpkin, for it increases (the strength of) the brain; and make it your practice to eat lentils, for they have been declared blessed on the tongues of seventy prophets."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Amr bin al-Husayn, who is matruk (abandoned).
