Foods Preferable for a Pregnant or a Woman during Childbirth to Eat

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي الْمَرْأَةِ الْحَامِلِ تَأْكُلُ السَّفَرْجَلَ فَإِنَّ الْوَلَدَ يَكُونُ أَطْيَبَ رِيحاً وَ أَصْفَى لَوْناً .
1. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Salmah ibn al-Khattab from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Abd al- Rahman from Sharahbil ibn Muslim who has said the following: “He (the Imam) عليه السلام, has said, ‘A pregnant woman should eat quince because the child grows up of fine smell and clear color.’”
