THE MATCHLESS PROPHET

HIS SALIVA .....

On the day of A’ashura, the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) ordered that the infants should be brought to Him; the sons of Hadhrat Fatima (May Allah be well pleased with her) i.e. Imam Hasan and Imam Hussain (May Allah be well pleased with them) were also there. The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) put His saliva in their mouths and instructed their mothers not to suckle them till dusk. The saliva of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) was sufficient for them and they did not need their mothers’ milk. (Zurqani ‘al’al mawahib Vol 5, Pg No: 289)

Hadhrat ‘Umairah bint Mas’ud (May Allah be well pleased with him) came to the presence of the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) along with his sisters for the pledge (bai’). He saw the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) having Qadeed (dried meat). The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) gave him a piece of meat after chewing it. All of them shared from it. The blessing of it was such that none of them had mouth odor after this. (Khasais Kubra Vol 1, Pg No: 61/62)

It has been narrated on the authority of Hadhrat Habeeb bin fidak (May Allah be well pleased with him) that his father took him to the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), when both his eyes had gone white. He could not see anything. The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) asked him, “What happened to you?” He replied, “My foot fell on a white snake and I lost my eyesight.” The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) cast His saliva into his eyes, because of whose blessings, he again started seeing. The narrator says that he would thread a needle at the age of 80 and his eyes were still white. (Khasais Ul Kubra Vol 2, Pg No: 69)
