Hadith 27004

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، وَقَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، عَنْ أُمِّْ قَيْسٍ بِنْتِ مِحْصَنٍ , أَنَّهَا جَاءَتْ بِابْنٍ لَهَا وَقَدْ أَعْلَقَتْ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْعُذْرَةِ ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " عَلَامَ تَدْغَرْنَ أَوْلَادَكُنَّ بِهَذِهِ الْعُلُقِ ؟ عَلَيْكُنَّ بِهَذَا الْعُودِ الْهِنْدِيِّ ، فَإِنَّ فِيهِ سَبْعَةَ أَشْفِيَةٍ ، مِنْهَا ذَاتُ الْجَنْبِ " , ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الصَّبِيَّ ، فَبَالَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَنَضَحَهُ , قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ : مَضَتْ السُّنَّةُ بِذَلِكَ.
It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Qais bint Mihsan (may Allah be pleased with her) that once I brought my child, who had not yet started eating or drinking, to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The child urinated on the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called for water and sprinkled it on that spot. Then, when I brought my son again, I had lifted his throat. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Why do you strangle and trouble your children by lifting their throats like this? Use Indian costus (Qust Hindi), for in it there is a cure for seven diseases, one of which is pleurisy. In case of throat swelling, Qust Hindi should be dropped into the nose, and in case of pleurisy, it should be dropped at the side of the mouth."
