حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ قَالَ
خَرَجْنَا وَمَعَنَا غَالِبُ بْنُ أَبْجَرَ، فَمَرِضَ فِي الطَّرِيقِ، فَقَدِمْنَا الْمَدِينَةَ وَهُوَ مَرِيضٌ، فَعَادَهُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَتِيقٍ، وَقَالَ لَنَا: عَلَيْكُمْ بِهَذِهِ الْحَبَّةِ السَّوْدَاءِ، فَخُذُوا مِنْهَا خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا، فَاسْحَقُوهَا، ثُمَّ اقْطُرُوهَا فِي أَنْفِهِ بِقَطَرَاتِ زَيْتٍ، فِي هَذَا الْجَانِبِ وَفِي هَذَا الْجَانِبِ؛ فَإِنَّ عَائِشَةَ حَدَّثَتْهُمْ أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْحَبَّةَ السَّوْدَاءَ شِفَاءٌ مِنْ كُلِّ دَاءٍ، إِلَّا أَنْ يَكُونَ السَّامُ». قُلْتُ: وَمَا السَّامُ؟ قَالَ: الْمَوْتُ.

We went out, and with us was Ghalib b. Abjar. He fell ill on the way, and we came to Madinah while he was ill. Ibn Abu Atiq visited him and said to us, "Use this black seed. Take five or seven of them, grind them, then drip it into his nose with drops of oil, on this side and on this side; for Aishah told them that she heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: "Indeed, this black seed is a cure for every disease, unless it is sam."" I said, "What is al-sam?" He said, "Death."
