THE QURAN REFERS TO DATES IN A FEW PLACES:
1. When the mother of Prophet Jesus (Alayhi wa sallam) was giving birth to him and she was experiencing pain, she was told to: "Shake the trunk of the palm towards you and fresh, ripe dates will drop down onto you." Surah Maryam (19), verse number 23 ..
2. And in the earth are tracts (diverse though) neighboring, and gardens of vines and fields sown with corn, and palm trees - growing out of single roots or otherwise: watered with the same water, yet some of them We make more excellent than others to eat. Behold, verily in these things there are signs for those who understand! (Qur’an, 13:4)
THE HADITH ALSO REFER TO DATES:
Aisha (Radi allahu anha) said: the prophet (Sallalahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Indeed in dates there is a cure”. Reported by Muslim (14/3) and Ahmad (6/152)
The Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi wa sallam) said: "How excellent are dates as the believer's Suhoor". [Abu Dawood, Ibn Hibban and al-Baihaqee; Sahih]
The Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “ Whoever finds dates should break his fast with them and the one who does not should break his fast with water because it is pure”
It was reported by Abu Naaim, Abu Daoud, Al Hakem, Al Imam Al Tirmithi and mentioned in The book of Al Imam Al Thahabi “The Prophetic Medicine” that the Prophet (PBUH) said: “ The one who eats 7 dates in the morning will be protected that day from poison and envy”
The Prophet (Sallalahu alayhi wa sallam) said: “Break your fast by eating dates as it is purifying.” (Narrated by Ahmad)
