Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Abdul Rahman Bin Hammaad, from Muhammad Bin Is’haq, from Muhammad Bin Al-Fayz who said, who has narrated the following: I said to Abu Abdullah (asws), ‘When one of us becomes ill, the healers order us to go on a diet’. So he (asws) said: ‘But, the People (asws) of the Household, we (asws) do not stay away except from the dates, and we (asws) cure by the apple and the cold water’.

I said, ‘And why do you (asws) keep away from the dates?’ He (asws) said: ‘Because the Prophet (saww) of Allah (azwj) kept Ali (asws) away from it during his (asws) illness’. يخرجه - Shaykh Baqir al-Behbudi (Sahih al-Kafi) جهول - Allamah Baqir al-Majlisi (Mirʾāt al-ʿUqūl fī Sharḥ Akhbār Āl al-Rasūl (16/317))
