Sahih al-Bukhari 5417 (Book 70, Hadith 45) #5191
Comforting with Talbina

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's wife, Aisha, ordering a dish of Talbina to be cooked for her relatives and close friends when one of them passed away. She did this because she heard that the Prophet said it would soothe the heart of the patient and relieve some sadness.

Narrated 'Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) that whenever one of her relatives died, the women assembled and then dispersed (returned to their houses) except her relatives and close friends. She would order that a pot of Talbina be cooked. Then Tharid (a dish prepared from meat and bread) would be prepared and the Talbina would be poured on it'.Aisha would say (to the women),"Eat of it, for I heard Allah's Messenger saying, 'The Talbina soothes the heart of the patient and relieves him from some of his sadness'. "
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ إِذَا مَاتَ الْمَيِّتُ مِنْ أَهْلِهَا فَاجْتَمَعَ لِذَلِكَ النِّسَاءُ، ثُمَّ تَفَرَّقْنَ، إِلاَّ أَهْلَهَا وَخَاصَّتَهَا، أَمَرَتْ بِبُرْمَةٍ مِنْ تَلْبِينَةٍ فَطُبِخَتْ، ثُمَّ صُنِعَ ثَرِيدٌ فَصُبَّتِ التَّلْبِينَةُ عَلَيْهَا ثُمَّ قَالَتْ كُلْنَ مِنْهَا فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏ "‏ التَّلْبِينَةُ مَجَمَّةٌ لِفُؤَادِ الْمَرِيضِ، تَذْهَبُ بِبَعْضِ الْحُزْنِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about how Aisha used to comfort her relatives and close friends when one of them passed away. She would order a pot of Talbina to be cooked and then Tharid (a dish prepared from meat and bread) would be prepared with it poured on top. According to what she heard from Allah's Messenger, this was meant to soothe their hearts and help relieve some sadness they were feeling due to their loss. This shows us that even in times of grief we can still find comfort in small acts like cooking a meal or sharing food together as a way to remember our loved ones who have passed away. It also teaches us that we should always strive for kindness towards others even during difficult times as it can bring peace into our lives as well as those around us.
