Instruction to remove the smell of onions and garlic and guidance about Baqi
Hadith 10
حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، ثنا سُفْيَانُ، ثنا يَحْيَي بْنُ صَبِيحٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيُّ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْيَعْمَرِيِّ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: إِنِّي أَحْسَبُ أَنَّكُمْ تَأْكُلُونَ شَجَرَتَيْنِ يَعْنِي خَبِيثَتَيْنِ الْبَصَلَ وَالثُّومَ فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ لَا بُدَّ فَاعِلِينَ فَاقْتُلُوهُمَا بِالنُّضْجِ ثُمَّ كُلُوهُمَا فَلَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَجِدُ رِيحَهُ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ فَيَأْمُرُ بِهِ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَي الْبَقِيعِ "
Ma'dan bin Abu Talhah al-Ya'mari narrates this statement from Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him): I think that you people eat the produce of these two trees. (By this, Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) meant the odorous trees: onion and garlic.) If you must do so, then cook them to remove their smell, then eat them, because I remember regarding the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that if he sensed their smell, he would order regarding it, and it would be taken out towards "Baqi'."
