Sayyidina Abu Sa’eed (RA) reported that a man came to the Prophet (SAW) and said, “My brother has loose bowels.” He said, “Give him honey to drink.” So he gave it to him. He came again and said, “0 Messenger %L of Allah, I made him drink honey, and it has not but made his bowels more loose.” He said, “Give him honey to drink.” So, he gave him honey to drink and came back and said that he had given him drink of honey but only his bowels were more loose. Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said, “Allah has spoken the truth and your brother’s stomach has lied. Give him to drink honey.” He gave it to him and he recovered.
