The Shaykh : Here, a third questioner asks, “What is the authenticity of this story and this hadith? ‘A plate of figs was gifted to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), and he said, “Eat,” and he ate from it, and said, “If I were to say that a fruit descended from Paradise, I would say this one, for the fruit of Paradise has no thorns. So eat from it, for it cures hemorrhoids and benefits from cramps.’” This hadith is not authentic. I do not recall exactly right now whether it is weak or fabricated, but it is published in the volume of the series of weak and fabricated hadiths. The questioner can refer to it to verify whether it is weak or fabricated. In any case, it is not authentic.
