وَبِهذَا الإسناد قالَ: قالَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: الكمأة من المن الَّذِي أَنْزَلَه اللَّه عَلَى بَنِي إسرائيل وَهِيَ شِفاءَ للعين وَالعَجْوَة الَّتِي فِي البرنِي من الجَنَّة وَهِيَ شِفاءَ من السُّمِّ.

According to the same documentation, God’s Prophet (S) said, “Hedysarum [95] is one of the Manna [96] which God sent down to the Children of Israel. It is a healing for the eyes. Also a form of date called ‘Ajwah’ in Arabic is from Paradise [97] . It is a healing for being poisoned.”

[95] Genus of herbs of north temperate regions

[96] “And We gave you the shade of clouds and sent down to you Manna and quails, saying, ‘Eat of the good things We have provided for you:’ (But they rebelled); to us they did no harm, but they harmed their own souls.” [Qur’an, 2:57].

[97] In other traditions we read that the palm-tree from which the Blessed Mary (a.s.) ate produced heavenly dates called ‘Ajvah’. "And shake towards thyself the trunk of the palm-tree: It will let fall fresh ripe dates upon thee.” [Qur’an, Mary 19:25]
