حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ السَّائِبِ بْنِ بَرَکَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَخَذَ أَهْلَهُ الْوَعْکُ أَمَرَ بِالْحَسَائِ قَالَتْ وَکَانَ يَقُولُ إِنَّهُ لَيَرْتُو فُؤَادَ الْحَزِينِ وَيَسْرُو عَنْ فُؤَادِ السَّقِيمِ کَمَا تَسْرُو إِحْدَاکُنَّ الْوَسَخَ عَنْ وَجْهِهَا بِالْمَائِ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 3445
It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "If any of his family members became ill, the Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H would order that some broth be made. And he would say: 'It consoles the grieving heart and cleanses the ailing heart, as anyone of you cleanses her face of dirt with water.''' (Hasan)
