And ‘Abd al-Malik ibn Shu‘ayb ibn al-Layth ibn Sa‘d narrated to us: my father narrated to me, from my grandfather, from ‘Uqayl ibn Khālid, from Ibn Shihāb, from ‘Urwah, from ‘Ā’ishah, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that whenever a deceased person from her family died and the women gathered for that occasion, then dispersed—except her family and her close ones—she would order a cooking pot of talbīnah to be made and cooked. Then tharīd was prepared, and the talbīnah was poured over it. Then she would say: “Eat from it, for I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say: ‘Talbīnah is a comfort for the heart of the sick, and it removes some of the grief.’”
