1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Salmah ibn al-Khattab from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Abd al- Rahman from Sharahbil ibn Muslim who has said the following
“He (the Imam) (a.s.), has said, ‘A pregnant woman should eat quince because the child grows up of fine smell and clear color.’”
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي الْمَرْأَةِ الْحَامِلِ تَأْكُلُ السَّفَرْجَلَ فَإِنَّ الْوَلَدَ يَكُونُ أَطْيَبَ رِيحاً وَ أَصْفَى لَوْناً .
