روي أن رسول الله غشي عليه في مرضه الذي مات منه فتخوفوا أن تكون به ذات الجنب فلددوه فوجد خفافا فأفاق فقال ما صنعتم؟ قالوا لددناك يا رسول الله. قال بماذا؟ قالوا بالعود الهندي يعني الكست وبشيء من ورس وقطارات من زبد. قال من أمركم بذلك؟ قالوا أسماء بنت عميس. قال هذا طب أصابته بأرض الحبشة . ثم قال لا يبقين أحد في البيت إلا التد إلا ما كان من عمي يعني العباس.
