Umm Qays bint Mihsan al-Asadiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her), the sister of Ukkashah bin Mihsan (may Allah be pleased with him), says: I came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with a son of mine, and I had pressed his throat because of a throat ailment. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Why do you press your children's throats because of the throat ailment (al-'udhrah)? Treat them with Indian aloeswood (al-'ud al-hindi), for in it is a cure for seven kinds of disease. For the throat ailment it should be given through the nose, and for one suffering from pneumonia (dhat al-janb) it should be given into one side of the mouth."
