A comment on the hadith of the one who complained of his brother's bloated belly, to whom he said: (Give him honey), and he did not recover until the third time; in it is the fact that the proportion was appropriate for him.

The Shaykh : What else do you have?

The questioner : ... following on the issue of proportion, the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) to the one who came and informed him that his brother's belly had swollen, to whom he (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Give him honey اسقيه عسلا
So he gave him [honey] and returned, saying, "O Messenger, his swelling has increased." He said:
Give him honey اسقه عسلا
He came the third time. He said: On the second time, Allah told the truth and your brother's belly lied. So he gave him [honey] the third time and he recovered. This is also a witness to the statement of our teacher (may Allah preserve him) that the issue relates to proportion; so on the third time, it was true that the proportion was suitable, and he recovered by the permission of Allah.

The questioner : ... .
Another questioner: Or Basam.

The Shaykh : If there is a stranger who does not know our system, he is excused, but the close man is not excused!

The questioner : Yes, exactly.

The Shaykh : Yes, please go ahead.
