Hadith 14:24

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Abu Sufyan, from Jabir, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) entered upon Umm Salamah, and with her was a young boy whose nostrils were dripping blood. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "What is the matter with this one?" They said: "He has *al-'udrah* (tonsillitis/throat inflammation)." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Why do you afflict your children? It is sufficient for one of you to take Indian incense (*qist al-hindi*), scrape it with water seven times, and then administer it to him as a drink." He said: So they did that, and he recovered.
