Abu Said reported: We made no transgression but Khaybar was conquered. We, the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , fell upon this plant. i e. garlic. because the people were hungry. We ate it to our hearts content and then made our way towards the mosque. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sensed its odour and he said: He who takes anything of this offensive plant must not approach us in the mosque. The people said: Its (use) has been forbidden; its (use) has been forbidden. This reached the Apostle of Allah ﷺ and he said: O people, I cannot forbid (the use of a thing) which Allah has made lawful, but (this garlic) is a plant the odour of which is repugnant to me.
